As I posted earlier, some posters (such as you, apparently) are looking at Brown's election through the prism of political party, and it's implications on the GOP.

Brown is opposed to amnesty. That's my problem with this article - it tries to claim Brown offers nothing to advance conservatism, but that is just plain wrong. I agree with your larger points - but the Dems had us up against our own one-yard line, and Brown's election just gave us ten yards. And we needed that ten yards badly. But there are some who are complaining that we didn't score on the play.

I didn't say that Brown was for amnesty. I said that some RINOs were.

I understand what you are saying and I agree that it was a score, for today, but...

How significant of a score is it if Brown ends up supporting and voting for some form of governmemt run health care? Who really scored then? Surely not "We the People".

Conservative contempt for anti-constitutional liberalism is way too easily satiated and blunted by temporary scores (and I hope this isn't one of them but the hand writing seems to be on the wall).
