Consumer advocate Elizabeth Warrens likely entry into the U.S. Senate race in Massachusetts could re-energize Tea Party support for Sen. Scott Brown, whose moderation in Washington has deeply disappointed the conservative grassroots movement that swept him to office in early 2010. I think she has the capacity to do that, said Christen Varley, head of the Greater Boston Tea Party, who described Browns relationship with the Tea Party as tense.

Simple. Primary Brown. He did not do as he said he would.
He owes me 50 also.

Absolutely. I would love to see that guy who ran against Barney go up against Brown in the primary. I think he was a Marine and lived in Brookline. Let the Tea Party support the Marine and let Brown wet his pants with worry.
What did he not do that he said he would do?
What control has he helped with?
Dumbest idea of the year. that’s my thought about your post.
Conservatives in Massachusetts may well vote for Brown as the lesser of two evils. But I doubt very much that he will get a repeat of all those big donations from conservatives all over the country next time.
The two main motivations—to take back the Kennedy seat and to elect a pickup-driving conservative—will no longer be there.
There will be other races and better candidates on whom people will prefer to spend their money, especially out-of-staters.
scr@w brown.
Brown has nothing to worry about.
Elizabeth Warren? Wow, just today I saw videos of her.
She is an Oklahoma girl....here she is on the collapse of the middle class.

Until the end of July 2011 she was on obama’s TARP council.
In 2009 she said “To restore some basic sanity to the financial system, we need two central changes: fix broken consumer-credit markets and end guarantees for the big players that threaten our entire economic system. If we get those two key parts right, we can still dial the rest of the regulation up and down as needed. But if we don’t get those two right, I think the game is over. I hate to sound alarmist, but that’s how I feel about this.”
Frankly, I think she is a common sense American that has just had her first taste of how Washington really works....

May I ask what you know about Warren? I linked some info in post 52.
Scot Brown can go fish.
If the Tea party backs this scum once again then they are no better than the dems or pubbies.
Sooo, TribalPrincess2U,
Are you say a fat 58 year old white guy or what?
Joke its a joke.
Why is Warren less conservative than Brown?
He may have nothing to worry about but I’d love to the opportunistic phony sweat.
Do not waste a dime on Brown. Spend your money in the NE MT OH FL ND MO WI senate races where you can get a conservative and not a rhino. Let MA to twist in the wind.
Sounds good to me.
Brown is def. a RINO.
Get ‘em out.
Defeating Brown makes the goal of "enough new Republicans" 1 seat more difficult. Personally, I'd take a 74% friend over a 0% friend any day of the week. And in Mass, you are not going to get any better.
Fat lot of good when the 26% votes go to the opposition on the big critical votes.
Voting percentages are meaningless without an issue by issue analysis.
In Montgomery Co. Maryland we had Rep Connie Morella who crossed the aisle so many times my cohort of conservative friends called Connie the Red, and not just because of her fondness for red jackets.
Remember when many of us donated to that turncoat SOB and the minute he won, the dewy eyed here made him the flavor of the month as a presidential candidate?
Screw him - not one dime of out of state support. Send ducats to real conservatives in battleground states.
