Fauxcahontas' new ads are pretty effective, I admit -- she says almost nothing herself, but her hired shills insist "Elizabeth fights for the working people." This is a real theme with her, but I have no idea what the specifics might be. I gather she played some part in establishing yet another "consumer protection" bureaucracy (how it differs from the myriad existing ones -- i.e., job havens for the politically connected but lazy and/or untalented -- remains a mystery). But how did she fight for the middle class? Was it flipping (foreclosed) real estate for tidy profits in Oklahoma? Representing corporate defendants in the asbestos litigation (a scam on the whole IMO, but nonetheless . . .)? Collecting $350,000 a year from Harvard Law for teaching one course, while fulminating against the burden of student loans? Beats me!

Truth to tell, however, Scott's recent ads are weak, sort of "don't be fooled by the negative ads run by my opponent" -- but no specifics. She accuses him of standing up for "corporate interests"; I would think he could at least remind people that while gov't issues the money, it's corporations that make everything that make having money worthwhile! ;-)

This is the same crap that used to get Tip O'Neill relected for so many years.

"Yar...I always voted fa Tip. He was fowah the common guy. He was wicked pissa."

And we must not forget this:

"According to financial disclosure forms Warren filed with the Senate last year, Harvard lent her between $15,000 and $50,000 in 1996. "Let me get this straight: struggling students and families pay more, so multi-millionaire Warren can pay nothing?" Brown’s campaign manager Jim Barnett told the Herald. "This sweetheart deal adds insult to injury for the students whose high tuition costs have already made Warren a wealthy one-percenter, and reveals yet again Professor Warren’s hypocritical idea of fairness.” "

Of course, Fauxcahontas Lizzie likely wouldn't even be at Harvard and a recipient of the university's largesse if she hadn't lied about being a minority.

"For the working people" my a$$.
