“...a moderate Republican”
“In politics the middle way is none at all.” - John Adams
Not good.
Yes, several. McCain, Rubio, Graham, and Nikki Haley to name a few.
Is anyone surprised that a liberal, pro-choice NE Republican is endorsing Trump?
No. Does not help me gravitate toward DT.
Me, too. He was my state senator.
Some selected highlights on Scott Brown on some issues:
Calls himself pro-choice, but usually votes pro-life. (Apr 2014)
OpEd: Not a reliable vote on abortion rights. (Dec 2013)
I’m pro-choice but anti-Elena Kagan. (Sep 2012)
I’m a moderate pro-choice Republican & always have been. (Sep 2012)
Support legalized abortion, but not partial-birth abortion. (Jan 2010)
Authored bill for 24-hour waiting period for abortion. (Jan 2010)
Abortions should always be legally available. (Nov 2002)
Civil unions ok; federal same-sex marriage not ok. (Nov 2011)
Gay marriage is a resolved issue in Massachusetts. (Nov 2011)
Ok’d federal ban on assault weapons after Newtown shootings. (Dec 2013)
Extend the state assault weapons ban, but not federal. (Jul 2012)
Reliably pro-gun, but opposed right-to-carry reciprocity. (Jul 2012)
Supported RomneyCare in 2006; it’s different than ObamaCare. (Dec 2013)

Scott Brown DESPERATELY wants to be picked to be on a ticket as VP candidate.
Great endorsement for the RINO vote!
For freepers, not so much, other than the hardcore Bridge Club members (Trump , Bridge, get it?) who will suddenly remember that Scott Brown is a “tea party hero”!! Which in fairness, he was, one of the first ones in fact, but then he was a typical NE RINO Senator after that, better than Suzie Collins and Yellow Snowe, but not that much better.
I should say I did fully support Brown’s MA reelection bid and NH bid (though I didn’t think he should run there NH GOP couldn’t find anyone else and was allegedly gonna vote like a NH Republican instead of a MA Republican if he had won), much preferable to Liawatha and Shaheen.
Good thing.
North eastern liberal endorses north eastern liberal candidate. No surprise here.
I didn’t know that February was RINO mating season in the Northeast. Now I do.
Scott Brown works for Goldman Sach's lobbying firm Nixon Peabody. He also has received campaign donations from Goldman Sachs.
Brown has the GS cooties and now Trump is beholden to Brown.
Didn’t Trump mention Scott Brown as VEEP?
Scott Brown is equal on amnesty than Ted Cruz.
Cruz wants to pander to hispanics to some degree and Brown wants to pander to white women to some degree.
Brown and Trump are chasing the notheast white women vote.
This is the guy who lost to Sen. Fauxcahauntis, correct?
Brown is 10 times better than Rick Perry or Carson on illegals.
Ann Coulter and radio host Howie Carr will be campaigning with Trump.

Yesterday, the anti-immigrant group Americans for Legal Immigration PAC (ALIPAC) announced its endorsement of Massachusetts state Senator and GOP Senate candidate Scott Brown. ALIPAC commends Brown for opposing “amnesty†and for denying undocumented immigrants drivers licenses as a state legislator and his opposition to granting undocumented youth in-state tuition:
