Elizabeth Warren invokes win over Scott Brown as proof she can beat Trump
The Washington Times ^ | February 9, 2020 | AP

She has also refused to say that New Hampshire’s primary on Tuesday is a must win, even though she’s a senator from neighboring Massachusetts.

Still, at a rally at a high school in Lebanon, New Hampshire, on Sunday night, Warren referenced her then-upset win in 2012 over Republican incumbent Sen. Scott Brown.

Dipping into the firewater again? In Massachusetts, it is a ‘man bites dog’ story when a Republican wins anything! Sorry, small potatoes for you, Liz!

That was no upset. Warren was the favorite to win the entire election.

Win she did. Scott Brown had become too sure of himself, and too interested in palling around with Democrats.
I seem to recall Scott and one of his daughters challenging Obama and his group to a ‘reach across the aisle’ type basketball game. I can’t recall if it ever took place.
Many conservatives lost faith in him due to pandering stunts like that.

It is so difficult for Democrats to win elections in Massachusetts-—that the entire Congressional delegation is Democrats!

Liz deserves a participation trophy.

It was a fluke that Scott Brown got elected U.S. Senator from Massachusetts in the first place. People in eastern Massachusetts think all Republicans are worse than Hitler. The Dems and the press mercilessly smeared Brown and his wife and daughters in 2012. And, of course, the Dems own the polling locations.

You have to give her credit for doing as well as she is doing so far. After all, she is combatting three long-standing American prejudices:

1. Against women leaders

2. Against Native Americans

3. Against liars who can't lie plausibly

That’s like me saying that just because I can beat up Peewee Herman, that means I can also beat up Mike Tyson. She and her followers are fools.

Scott Brown only won a special election against the atrocious Martha Oakley. That was a fluke, yes. Sort of like Doug Jones winning in Alabama.

I actually worked for the Scott Brown campaign in that special election back in early 2010. It was an exciting time and Brown garnered Tea Party support that put him over the top in a come-from-behind race.

Unfortunately Brown turned out to be a huge disappointment once in office - as Massachusetts Republicans are prone to be - and today he couldn't get elected dog catcher.

Sen. Scott Brown is no President Trump.

Brown would still be preferable to the sick embarrassment that is Warren. She makes my skin crawl.

I totally get the frustration around here with RINOs and the kind of Republicans that tend to win in liberal states.

But those R’s are still needed when it comes to who is the Speaker or Majority Leader, and which party has the Chairmanships and majorities on Congressional committees.

Agreed.
