Sen. Brown: Forget ‘itty-bitty’ R at end of name (Why did I donate to him?!?)
Boston Herald ^ | 1/17/11 | Hillary Chabot

Posted on 01/17/2011 2:04:30 PM PST by Recovering_Democrat

U.S. Sen. Scott Brown said this morning he’ll take part in the bipartisan seating at President Obama’s State of the Union address, urging that people need to move past the “itty-bitty letter” signifying he’s a Republican at the end of his name.

My god, what a cabal of sissified "men" we have in the Republican party now.

Pathetic. Moronic.

Hey Scott, hey JOHN...where were these jerkwater Democrats for TWO YEARS before the Tea Party gave you guys such huge victories in the 2010 elections???

This is nothing but political class arrogance. And stupidity.

Scott Brown, don't expect a single thin dime from me again. Your tenure as a Senator will end with this term, because your new "friends" in the Democrat party will eat you alive come re-election time. I really can't believe you don't see how much they hate you and how they're laughing their asses off at your gullibility.

Republican "men" acting like this is like a movie where you see someone doing something soooo stupid but they think they're soooo smart. Reminds me of Nicholas Cage in "Honeymoon in Vegas" when he thinks he is gonna beat James Caan at poker.

Brown is the best Republicans can do in Massachusetts. If people disagree with his positions, don’t donate to him but don’t buy into the fantasy that some firebrand 100% pure conservative can win. Brown frustrates me with some of his votes and stuff like this is nonsense but I’m glad we don’t have a Kennedy seat warmer or, worse yet, a Kennedy in that seat. If Brown holds it for another term or two, I’ll be happy.

Brown will be easy to spot, he’ll be the one on Harry Reid’s lap.

At this point I don’t necessarily see this the way you do. The infighting isn’t helping any of us - they need to get past that and work for solutions. He didn’t say just to forget his R, he said forget the letters for everyone and work together. Maybe he will disappoint me and vote liberal on everything, but until then, I’m hoping more folks will work on some solutions together.

You are mistaken.
Citizens can do better than having trusted in a politician
who LIED TO THEM, like Brown.

Brown PRETENDED to be conservative.
He is the toady of the DNC, Romney and the State St. Bank.

Donated money not because I didn’t think he would sell out, donated to embarrass the Dems by them loosing this seat.

Sometimes even giving to a raging rino is worth it.

My only argument with you is how much will the NRSC waste on him, like they did with Fiorina in CA? I’d rather have the NRSC directing their money towards ousting democrats like Conrad in ND and McCaskill in MO.

These wussy republicans in liberal states are money drains that rarely get us a conservative vote (see Arlen Specter). Spend money on conservatives, let these liberal republicans (Snowe, Brown) fend for themselves in 2012.

Amen. A day without the Kennedy Clan is a good day. And when the worst of them assumed room temperature it was a very good day. It will be truly a great day when the last of the offspring of decendants of Joe Kennedy have departed for the great bootlegger rendezvous.

I agree with you on NRSC, RNC and other Republican national organizations misspending money. They have not been good at targeting races that are winnable.

From a tactical perspective, the move in the Northeast is to deny Dems seats. This is the same argument we made with Raese and Manchin in reverse. Old Joe Manchin may vote with Republicans on most issues but his most important vote—the vote for Senate leader—is for the Dems and that is a lot of power. Brown may vote wrong on issues sometimes (but certainly not all times) but he will vote for the GOP senate leadership.

Reid is Pelosi's lapdog and Brown is Reid's!

Could it be that he was not really a “Republican”? Rino seems to fit entirely - but most of us knew that going in - we just wanted to get the R seat at any cost -

Imagine these buffoons in a poker game. They can be suckered into anything. The left is bluffing them out of all their chips. Losers!

The problem with RINOs is you can always count on them to vote for the enemy when the vote is close and they have led you to believe they support your position. Case in point? -- Specter.
