The GELDING old party is ‘Rat lite. The Brown vote provided cover for all the other Geldings in the Senate. It's clear that a 3rd party is the solution.

He was also against another stimulus and then immediately voted for the $15 billion “jobs bill” (mini stimulus).

Q: Is another government stimulus plan a good idea?

A: I don’t think so. We are leaving a legacy, amassing amazing amounts of debt, passing it on to our kids and grand-kids, and at some point we are just going to be top heavy.

Dems taught Brown how to love the left. A few french kisses from the president and he was happily wearing kneepads.

Since I was sold a bill of goods by a snake oil salesman, I want my donations back.

Those of us who supported and voted for Brown are very, very disappointed. He’s gone in 2012.

He needs to hear from all those out there that helped him during his campaign. Traitor is an applicable label, IMO.

Kennedy said Brown is not the tax-cutter he claims to be because he has supported millions of dollars in higher fees on taxpayers.

"I don't care if you call it a tax. I don't care if you call it a fee. It's still money out of the taxpayer's pocket," he said.

So maybe this Joe guy knew what he was talking about after all. I never thought Scott Brown was going to be a social conservative, but I did hear him say once or twice he was going to be committed to fiscal conservatism. Supporting finreg is not an example of fiscal conservatism.

Dick Bove was on CNBC last week and he said the finreg was going to cause about 10M people to lose their bank accounts in the next 12 months. All the new fees will just make it too expensive for customers and banks -- they will shed small accounts.

Jaime Dimon, of JPMORGANCHASE, shrugged off the finreg rules by saying all the fees would be rejuggled and priced into the cost to the consumer of banking. He said something like, "If you own a restaurant and the government tells you you have to offer free soda, you charge more for the hamburger."

Scott Brown laid an egg on this one. This has nothing to do with whether or not he was the magnificient "conservative" that some trumped him up to be after his election. It has to do with the fact that he either does not understand fiscal conservativism and the economic realities of the bill he just voted for or he was not truthful in how he presented himself as a fiscal conservative.

I apologize I don't have links handy for the above quotes. I will try to look for them if needed. Thanks.

Scott Brown: He’s not Martha Coakley.

He’s just Martha right now.

Give him a couple more months to complete the morph.
