Brown has $8.3 million cash on hand
Boston Globe ^ | April 5, 2011 | Walsh

Senator Scott Brown plans to report over $8.3 million cash on hand for his 2012 re-election campaign when he files a federal finance report on April 15, an aide said today.

The tally includes $1.7 million raised during the first quarter of the year.

By some estimates, Brown may spend up to $25 million on his campaign, in which he is seeking his first full term after replacing the late Senator Edward M. Kennedy in February 2010.

Who's giving him money? I'm not. And I don't think anyone else at FR is.

Does he really think he'll get re elected over our objections? If he does, he better think twice.

We put him in office. We can kick him out of it.

All I know about him is that he is a RINO backstabber.

He fits in well with the rest of them.

Face the reality of Massachusetts.
Brown for now is the best we can get from there.
Otherwise we would have another Kerry or Kennedy.

Ditto. I asked him to take me off his mailing list and suggested he switch parties.

If I recall right, a good chunk of that is left over from his race against Martha Croakley in 2009. I remember reading that he had millions unspent.

You are absolutely correct. Better to have a lib pub from a liberal state than a lib dim from a liberal state. We just cannot elect Ronald Reagan’s from all 50 states. But we sure as hell need to elect them in places where it is possible like Virgina, which has been abysmal recently.

Imho I will accept a rino from a liberal state to have the majority with control by conservatives. Would prefer all conservatives, of course.

The more troubling rinos are from conservative states, ala McCain and Graham.

“Face the reality of Massachusetts.

I live in this state. I was there at the Republican State Committee meeting when they trotted him out as second choice to Andy Card. And actually he is not the best that we could produce in this state. However the RINO’s and neer do wells that “lead” the Republican Party in Massachusetts refuse to back any true conservative candidate. As a matter of fact, they work against them.

Maybe Scottie is the best we can do right now, sort of like the two maidens from Maine but at least with Liveshot and the Swimmer, you always knew where they were going and what they were going to do. Scottie’s always a come out roll on a craps table.

H.C. Lodge, Sr. was a Conservative. His grandson, H.C., Jr., was a HUGE liberal RINO. JFK ran to his right in the 1952 Senate election.

A Brownbot called me the other day trying for a contribution.

I expressed my disappointment with Brown, and the bot assured me that Brown voted “90% with the Republicans” which, of course, was a lie.

We did finally agree that Brown wasn’t as bad as Kennedy, however.

I was nice to him, but he wouldn’t give up, so I hung up on him.
