Is Scott Brown Faux us or against us?
Could be he was the Dem’s candidate all
along - masquerading as a conservative.
Same thing happening in Nevada ... a faux
tea party candidate running against Reed.
We need to be like the Borg. Learn and
absorb, never to be abused by this tactic
again.
My opinion.
I wouldn’t worry about Scott Brown.
He gave his reason for voting for the bill — small amount of dollars, no new taxes, and people need jobs. Don’t read too much into it.
My problem with Scott Brown on this bill is that it is an extension of porkulus and is no more a “jobs” bill than the first one was. So is he a guy who just strides around flashing a nice smile, or does he read these things? If he doesn’t, if he’s not a serious legislator, then he’s just not much of a person.
Nobody who sent him money is happy with his vote because he cast a ‘political’ vote and not a ‘principled’ vote.
Republican senator’s Bond, Collins, Snowe, and Voinovich also voted with the democrats, so Brown was free to cast his with them, and have his not be of any consequence.
We will never know how he would have voted, had the other four held the line.
Would you prefer Reynolds or Alcoa for your hat?
That vote was the beginning of his reelection campaign. Personally I wasn’t surprised, given the state he represents in the Senate.
I told you all in one of the Brown victory threads that he was a lib.
The Democrats are screwing up the nation.
I am very disappointed in him right now.
Still, he is better than Martha Coakley ever would have been as the “Kennedy seat” Senator.
That is not a lot, but it is something.
I am certain that this November, the message will be received loud & clear from the rest of the country. That message which is already being muffled by traditional Massachusetts politics.
