SCOTT BROWN campaigned for the US Senate as a problem solver who values good ideas more than partisan labels, and he should make good on that vow in the debate over a bill to create jobs. What began as an ambitious package of business tax breaks and other incentives has given way to a timid $15 billion measure that will have only minor effects on unemployment. Brown could end an impasse - and dispel profound mutual distrust between Democrats and Republicans - by signaling a serious commitment to help develop and pass a more ambitious jobs bill.

The Boston Globe needs to stop pimping for communism and “seize the chance” to be an American newpaper.
The sooner Scott Brown starts cutting side deals with the Democrats, the sooner he will lose any support he has for national office.
My take on Brown is that he is quite ambitious (he is writing a memoir at this time and will be doing a book tour in 2011) and he will tow the conservative line. He will position himself for the Presidential nomination and see how much support he can generate.
If he becomes an Olympia Snow type Republican, he will be going no where, and he is smart enough to know that.
The Boston Globe is just laying a trap for Scott Brown.
He ran and was elected as 41.
He needs to stay true to the people who voted him in office.
Not No, but HELL NO.
Ya....let’s be buddies! That’s never backfired before!
As #41, he already is a uniter. When the Dems had a filibuster-proof majority, they did not need to cooperate with the minority party and now they do. That’s what bi-partisanship means in the real world. Of course, in the Boston Globe newsroom, bi-partisanship means “do what the Progressives tell you, Comrade”.
I don’t think Scott Brown owes the Boston Glob any respect.

Very well put.
Exactly.
Yeah, Boston Globe, you guys like endorsed his opponent, so Brown really doesn’t give a fig about what you think.
So the Globe argues that the candidate they opposed (and won) should behave like the candidate they endorsed (and lost).
uniter = compromise
Liberal Massachussetts elected a Republican NOT to get other Republicans to agree with the Democrats. The democrats already HAD enough votes to pass anything that they wanted, but they weren’t able.
They elected a Republican because they did not want any more of the recent Democrat agenda. Which means they do indeed want ‘Mr. 41’, in Globespeak.
Another way to look at it is to say that if the people of Massachusetts wanted the Democrats to keep their 60 votes in the Senate, they certainly had that choice last month.
...and they chose no.
Bingo!
These idiots need to understand they and their ilk won’t allow “unity” until they get a grasp of something called The Constitution . . . why it was framed and how it is intended to operate.
Until then, Scott Brown or anyone won’t “unify” this country. You can’t “unite” ignorant and intentional dividers . . which is what this editorial board is and what the current occupants of the White House and Congress are.
These libs crack me up in their crushing loss dementia .. hehehe.
