Based on what I have heard from Scott BRown - he sounds a h*ll of a lot better on protecting our borders, amnesty and illegal immigration than a lot of the “conservative” darlings mentioned here or loads of RINOs.

I'd be really careful about an 'untried' senator who is already making RINO noises with the News media. Who knows what he would do after elected?

Well, lets see how many time he votes Present.

I heard that is how you qualify.

I think he will have to vote Present a whole lot though, because he is awfully white.

That whitey white whiteness is going to be real hard to overcome.

WALTERS: Yes. You know when I was with you just a little while ago with the crowd, one of the women said — behind me — said, “President 2012.” And you said to me — or under your breath, “That’s silly.” But do you rule it out?

BROWN: I — I have to — I have to tell you, I don’t even have a business card. I haven’t even been sworn in. I don’t have any exploratory committees started. I don’t have any — anything — it’s — it’s overwhelming, and it’s extremely humbling. I don’t know how — what else to tell you.

WALTERS: Let’s talk about another rising star in the Republican party — Sarah Palin. Do you think that Sarah Palin is presidential material?

BROWN: Well — well, sure. I mean, she’s been a mayor, and a governor. And — and has a lot of — a national following. But I think the more people in a presidential race, the better. She’s never contacted us, and vice-versa.

In my opinion, Massachusetts is not certifying him until Feb 11th for l) spite, and 2) to let the Dem. crooks ram their crap through before he can vote.

More than opinion , Kirk's illegitimate vote, Jan 28, just cost every single American $6248. They raised the debt limit 1.9 Trillion by a 60 to 39 vote.

Sheesh, nutmeg, no need to ping me. I didn’t criticize Brown, just asked for a halt to the blabber about a Presidential run. I’m pretty sure we’re in full agreement.

“Reality is not too popular these days around here...”

Yep the sad thing is the major aspect of being a conservative used to be the abilty to reason, can’t believe some of these folks claim to be conservatives.

There’s plenty in his record that could reasonably be of concern to some here, why invent bs or worse pass it along as fact?

The only way to turn back the clock on Roe v Wade at this point is with prayer and legislators who will chip away bit by bit at legislation supporting it. That is what Brown has done. It should be evident that 30+ years of legislation cannot be undone in one single step.

Like Reagan, he is smart enough to get himself elected, and then approach the issue with stealth instead of bombast.. . . just exactly how the left has slowly boiled the masses towards socialism. I am hopeful that Brown will do the right thing when the time is right.

Here’s what Scott Brown actually said and by the way, he also think Sarah Palin is “presidential material.”

He also didn’t rule out the fact that he could have participated in the Brinks Robbery, could have been the Boston Strangler, and he can’t recall where he was on November 22, 1963.

“But Brown isn’t your typical pro-choice politician either.”

You should have checked the link I provided. I did NOT say this, this was a quote from the article in the Christian Post, the link to which I provided in my post. Go take it up with them.

Very strange since Sarah said she contacted Scott after he won and congratulated him. Perhaps they have not met in person but they have spoken

Interesting so many on FR find no fault with Obama to the point they find no negatives to post against Obama.

But, These same FReepers can’t wait bash Sarah Palin or Scott Brown and post away.
