>>When Scott Brown goes behind closed door with lawmakers and lobbyists and the Tea Party . . . and all shadowy figures who put him in office, hes fighting for them.
Attention tea partiers: you are shadowy figures acc. to him
>>Salem immigration lawyer Marisa DeFranco
Immigration lawyer...getting new Dems on board.
>>war against the people, and the middle class, and the workers, and small business who keep this country running.
Who's for middle class and small businesses, Dems or Republicans? How's Clinton's middle class tax cut working out for everybody? How about Deval Patrick's promised property tax relief?
>>questioned whether Brown was a worthy successor to Ted Kennedy
Well no, he HASN'T put a blonde in the pond...
>>winning back this seat
That's right, Massachusetts must have total 100 per cent Dems in office. Having the occasional Republican-even a RINO--can't have that. Why Mass. proudly re-elected Barney Frank, Deval Patrick, John Olver, Ed Markey, Jim McGovern, John "My Wife Does Money Laundering" Tierney...we can't dare put a Republican in office.
>>First-term Newton Mayor Setti Warren blasted Brown for not representing the values of Bay Staters by voting along Republican leadership lines 87 percent of the time.
How are the potholes in Newton, Mr. Mayor? Do you dare spend any time as mayor before suddenly deciding to run for Senator?
>>millionaires got their tax break
Republicans, hang your head in shame :)

Coakley ad
“I’m Martha Coakley and I approved this message”
“Who is Scott Brown, really? A Republican (pix of Bush and Cheney, Limbaugh) Who will vote in lockstep with the
Washington Republicans.”
(So...were they right?)
“Brown even advocates denying emergency room care to
rape victims...In times like these we can’t afford a Republican like Scott Brown”

Surprised they didn’t put any swastikas up in the ad...
The little piggies just whine when they do not get their corrupt way....
Start looking for a replacement Massachusetts!
And when have Tea Party folks ever been invited "behind closed doors" with lawmakes and lobbyists? LMAO
If 87% is true then Brown is about as good as we can expect for MA. Because he has let the Republicans down on big issues and is perceived as a RINO by many he probably isn’t going to generate the kind of excitement he did in 2010 and won’t receive as much out of state monetary support. As much as it grieves me to say it we really need to keep this half RINO’s seat. I doubt we can fill that seat with a staunch Republican ever given the extreme liberalism of the NE. But because he won’t get the same support the Dems will probably reclaim that seat in 2012.
A Republican that votes with the Republicans? What a shocker!
Seriously, I’m surprised at the 87%, I thought it would be lower...
He can vote 87% with the Republicans on unimportant issues, and on the remaining 13% important issues against them, and still cause severe damage to our side.
Alternately, he can realize that the Dems will hate him regardless of how much of a RINO he is, and start voting Conservative 100% of the time. Making nice with the Dems buys him nothing, and costs him Republican support.
There they go again showing off their stupidity..Brown won as a Republican so why would he be voting DemocRAT most of the time...
...he came out good and drunk!
I’m sorry to be a silly girl on this but Scott Brown is seriously smoking hot to look at and listen to, every woman and gay is voting for him just to keep his face in the news.
Currently he has a big war chest and is the most popular pol in the state (Brown). However he is on the same ballot as Obama in ‘12 and the Dems will be sure to get their vote out.
YUK! My dinner just came up, eweww! I’m so glad he’s gone and burried.
Brown's 2010 ACU score was 74.
By comparison, Lindsey Grahamnesty’s ACU score for 2010 was 92.
Among key votes, Brown voted:
* Against including Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac in financial regulatory reform
* Against auditing the Federal Reserve
* for ending debate on S3217 (Financial Regulatory Overhaul)
* for S 510 (Food Safety bill, dramatically increasing power of the FDA)
* for repeal of DADT
* for ratification of START
among the bills scored by ACU.
...five of the six Democratic candidates seeking to reclaim the "peopleâs seat" training their sights and barbs squarely on the freshman U.S. senator...Oh, definitely let's work for one or more of those six Demwits. They claim (probably accurately) that he votes 87% of the time with the Pubbies, and that's the best we're likely to get out of Massachusetts. Don't like it? Bite it. Or move your ass into Mass and win the seat yourself.
I agree. Even though all of the Congressmen are dems and Boston goes that way, I think a lot of Mass’ liberal dem faction is in the colleges. There are also a lot of nasty looking gerrymandered districts. The 4th, Frank’s district goes from Boston suburbs to the coastline. The 10th was won by a Dem with 46%.
According to Scott Brown’s victory map, the more Republican areas were the solid center, the northeast, and the southeast coasts. The 1st incorporates a large part of the center, but is overwhemled by the west. The southeast is broken into the 3rd, 4th, and 10th allowing Boston suburbs to out-vote the coast.
