Because he’s at least more freakin conservative than Coakley, can you understand that.

Because he will cast the one needed vote against healthcare so the dims won’t have 60 votes. The healthcare bill needs to be defeated at all costs.

Get Brown in now, let him be the 41st vote to block Healt Takeover, then we can deal with the RINOs in November.

You think it’d be better to have Martha Coakley in there?

At this point, I don’t even care that he is not a TRUE Conservative. Who cares, he can kill ObamaCare, that is all that matters to me

Let me just hazard a wild a$$ guess:

Two choices, Coakley and Brown.

Coakley is a flaming little leftist Nazi who loves killing babies and locking up innocent citizens for 18 years. She never saw a tax she didn’t like, she is an arrogant, elitist B**ch.

Brown is a Republican, Lieutenant Colonel in the National Guard. Promises to vote against Obamacare.

Which one to choose? Which one to choose? I just don’t know.

There was a better option in the NY race than Dede. In this case Scott Brown is the only option. Also one more vote in the Senate is a bigger deal than one more in the house.

So says some guy with a blog.. From everything I can see, while Brown isn’t perfect, he is well to the Right of Scuzzy.

Also, there isn’t a more Conservative candidate in that race, unlike Scuzzy’s race.

Precisely.

This election is not multiple-choice.

Key passage:
In other words, what began as a puzzle turns out not to be much of oneat all. It makes perfect sense that Scott Brown, a liberal Massachusetts Republican, has attracted Republican and conservative support. He’s perfectly suited for his liberal state electorate. Dede Scozzafava, in fact considerably more conservative than Scott Brown was not nearly so well matched to her intended constituency, the relatively conservative 23rd District that had returned moderate conservative John McHugh since the 1992 election.

What this shows, however, is that the conservative base in the United States, far from dragging their party moblike into an unelectable extreme, has made the decentralized decision to support the realistically best candidate they can relative to the context in which he’s being elected. The 23rd special district election can also be seen in this light; throwing Scozzafava overboard made far more sense in the context of that electorate.

Yeah?
Does Scott Brown support ACORN and, Card Check?
Sure Scott Brown is nowhere near as conservative as I'd want, but this is bluest of the blue Massachusetts, and right now, all I am interested in, is someone that will stop the Democratic Party super majority in the Senate. As long as he is going to vote against 0bamacare and help to stop 0bozo’s communist agenda, I am gonna back him for now.
Not to mention Scott Brown actually won his primaries, while Scozzafava was selected in smoke filled backrooms. Plus Massachusetts is very liberal, while NY23 was a safe conservative seat, yet the local Republican Party idiots chose the biggest liberal they could find anyway.

Why do conservatives support him? Because his election could stop the Obamacare and may scare Democrats into backing off the advancement of a far-left agenda.
