Unitl yesterday, having a moderatate Republican senator in Massachusetts was unthinkable, much less a conservative Republican.

I guess it is all relative. I would rather see Mitt Romney than John Kerry.

PRESSURE BROWN TO BECOME A CONSERVATIVE!

It can be done.

The PEOPLE must be ACTIVE in doing this.

Forget putting up your feet and smiling like a Cheshire cat. The REAL work remains. Get Brown on board with Reagan's successful policies.

The Brown win is going to make a lot of moderate Democrats uneasy following Obama, Pelosi, and Reid down the radical road. That is the good news.

Brown won because of the Independent vote. Will other Republicans have to move to the center in order to win?

The RINO brigade was bound to come down on Brown. Surprised it happened so quickly.

While I am NO fan of John McCain, I would still rather have him in office than the raging marxist Obama. There were many in here in 2008 that tried to make the case that there was zero difference between the two.

Don't know if anyone else caught this, but an hour or two ago when Scott was speaking, he started to say "Obama and I disagree on a lot of issues," but he stopped short of saying "a lot" and instead said "some." Worth re-watching if you can find the video anywhere.

Related thread:

Being the underdog never deters a driven Brown (his unusual background)

And an Excerpt from the Boston.com article:

****************************EXCERPT******************************

Brown has been a vocal opponent of same-sex marriage and in the past has been an advocate for a ballot question to amend the state constitution and ban same-sex marriage.

This guy is much more conservative that what you would normally get from a NE Republican moderate.

If he’s strong on fiscal and defense issues then who cares if he’s a little squishy on the Social stuff.

It started last night a couple of hours after he won. Maybe a couple, maybe one.

We’ll just have to wait and see how he does. And put pressure on him when he goes off track.

For now, can’t we just be happy?

For some, the only way they can be happy is to be pissed off...

Correct. A Mitt Romney or Scott Brown is about the best we can hope for in a place like Massachusetts.

But we can and should do a lot better than squishy moderates like Lindsey Grahamnesty in a state like South Carolina.
