Yeah, Scotty, the cuts were “irresponsible” all right....not nearly deep enough to get this country back on it’s feet!

And you certainly are NO help!

More heads need to roll in 2012!!

With MA being such a Liberal state it will be a miracle if Brown makes it 2-3 terms. The Dems will be trying their best to oust him.

He is such a wimp. Hard to believe that a few months ago people were suggesting he was presidential material.

He is, and always will be, a back bencher state senator. Oh wait, maybe that makes him Presidential. It worked for the guy in there now.

What a frickin loser Scott Brown has shown himself to be...

True, but as a conservative Republican from Massachusetts, I would like to say with regard to Scott Brown in the primaries:

He may not be the best

But he was better than the rest

As for the final showdown, our only alternative was radical liberal Democrat Martha Coakley.

The solution is simple. Eliminate any funds for Mass. Do the same for NY and Nevada. Target pet projects. Keep doing that until the rats and rinos yield.

BTW, you have to have the facts in front of you before you make proposals like this. There are a handful of states that pay more into the fed, than they receive in return. I don't know about MA or NV, but New York is one of them. Fellow conservatives are always shocked to learn that Wyoming is the biggest leach, receiving several times more in federal money than is taken.

Oh, I know. In fact New Mexico does the same. However, these Senators have pet projects all over the place. First, reduce support to their states, then go after their pet projects. Keep going at it until they yield.

That doesn’t speak to ACU’s rating calculation at all.

Not a fair comparison, Small populatin states are always going to be overstated in these types of things. States like New York are at the head of the curve in pet projects like light rail. Projects heavily subsidized by the fed and in most cases do not justify the expense. Remember the Big Dig in Boston?

Well I don’t wish Coakley had won or anything. And I’ve given him leeway. But uh, this is the prime issue of our time. You’re ticking me off Scott.

I thought he’d be more like Norm Coleman not Arlen Specter. Silly me. ;d

I got an email from his fundraiser dude, and I gave him a bit of an earful about the Planned Parenthood bit.

We can pin Scottie on Romney, point out to people what kind of Prez that Mittster will turn out to be. A turncoat.

Vote for 9 Post Offices named Reagan, and one 1.5 trillion debt, ACU rating, 90%.

Who would be so stupid to accept that 90% rating?

I agree. SB is a useful tool, for now.
