The Dems are already demonizing him.

No way!

It's his record of vote as a U.S. senator that has become his demise politically. /MS

He NEVER said he was running for president nor had the intention to,...

Yes, it is a pretty disappointing thread of deception isn't it.

So he doesn’t rule it out, what would you expect him to say? We all haven’t ruled out running ourselves!

“I don’t need to. His recent comments after his victory are discouraging.

- He thanks “independents” when it was conservatives who powered his victory
- He said he will be willing to work with Dems on most issues”

You don’t need to look at the video clip in order to determine the truth about the SUBJECT OF THIS THREAD? I’ll bear that in mind the next time I read comments you post. Meaning, you may or may not know what you’re talking about so I might just as well skip over your posts.

I wouldn’t count on “the days of the cranky old dudes being over” that soon. God help us all at every age if the youth of our day take offices. We’ve all had enough of them too!
There is such a thing as an experienced politician taking office...somewhere in the middle.

Doggone, that's some right good analysis, right there.

Oh, and the guy hasn't even been seated, nor voted on anything, yet there are those here who have already made up their minds.

What’s the matter with you guys?

Did anyone even think to look at the video? Although, I must admit, Barbara Walters was at her snarkiest best, and the GMA chick was horrid, Scott Brown handled this perfectly.

There is no way he is setting himself up as a Pres contender, and in fact stated, “I don’t even have a business card”.

AMEN, norge! Did any of you watch the 1 minute 26 second video clip, or are you commenting on the headline?

In no way did Scott say anything close to "not ruling out" a presidential run in 2012, or that he would be running for president in 2012 in that video clip.

Barbara Walters put the words in his mouth: "There's this talk" that maybe he'll be the next Republican presidential candidate. What "talk"? Who is "talking" about this???

We met Scott Brown and followed his ramshackle campaign bus (and VERY small entourage) - through a snow storm - to 3 rallies on January 18. SO FAR he is one of the most humble politicians I've met and seemed amazed that so many people came out to greet him at the 3 rallies, and in such awful weather.

He stayed at all 3 rallies until he shook every hand and signed anything supporters wanted signed (he even signed a guy's bald head!). How many "rock stars" do you know who do that? All this "rock star" talk is being ginned up by the media.

If Scott Brown loses sight of where he came from and really does start acting like a rock star, well, yeah, then we'll have something to complain about. Geez... give the guy a chance...

Sorry, but I think you and some other guys suffer male jealousy vs. Scott Brown.

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

BULL! Pro-choice = Pro-abortion! Brown is a hardcore abortion proponent. He believes Roe v Wade gives every women a Constitutional right to kill their unborn baby. The number of PBA's carried out every year in the US is a fraction of all abortions performed annually in the US. Brown supports abortion rights in 99.5% of all abortion cases.

Time for the obligatory advertisement. FRee Republic is a Pro-life conservative forum. Candidates like Brown, Giuliani, Romney, Schwarzenegger and Meg Whitman do nothing to advance the Pro-Life agenda or conservatism.

LOL. I think there’s some of that here also with Sarah Palin. :)

Wish more would keep in mind, they’re both on our side.

Scott Brown and Governor Palin best of all, both clearly rattle the left.

Thanks, but I do agree that we should keep an eye on Brown, as we should on ALL elected officials. I really HOPE he doesn't drink whatever is in the foul water in Washington DC and let it all go to his head.

Until then, I hope to see all the bickering ease up a bit until we see just exactly what this guy does... All these claims of "Oh, I knew he was like this!" and "See? He's let it all go to his head already!" are ridiculously premature.

I'm a conservative however I haven't the money to run for office, my name wouldn't last a day, I am way too good looking, I work for a living and to boot the media would hate me.

I wouldn't stand a chance politically. ; )
