Scott Brown is a Massachusetts State Senator running for the U.S.Senate as a Republican in a special election to fill the vacancy left by the death of Senator Ted Kennedy. The Massachusetts special election to fill the seat is less than two weeks away and the polls indicate that the race is tightening. Scott Brown, who is a solid moderate Massachusetts Republican with a fiscally conservative record in the Massachusetts State House, stands poised to pull off what would be the upset of the century.
Think about it. State Senator Scott Brown, a Republican, elected to the U.S. Senate from Massachusetts, a state that is perceived to be the most liberal state in the nation. Imagine, Scott Brown, elected to a seat that has been held by either a Kennedy or by a Kennedy surrogate for over a half a century. Contemplate, if you will, what this would mean to the big spending liberal establishment in Washington led by Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reed. Scott Brown is the Minuteman standing at the Old North Bridge in Concord about to fire the shot heard around the world.
To the shock and dismay of the Massachusetts liberal establishment, Scott Brown is running as the rightful heir of the Kennedy Legacy. Not the legacy of the big spending liberal Senator Ted Kennedy, but rather the legacy of the conservative President John F. Kennedy the man who was the conservative in the race against Richard Nixon in 1960. As President, JFK signed into law the biggest tax cut in American history, a tax cut that led to the prosperity of the 1960’s and 1970’s. Scott Brown has been running a brilliant and indeed a game changing TV commercial showing a TV speech in which JFK unveils his tax cut by explaining the economic benefits of cutting taxes. The commercial than blends into the image of Scott Brown today, handsome and charismatic, stating in simple terms his intent to continue with those tax cutting policies if the voters of Massachusetts send him to Washington.
The nation needs a man like Scott Brown in the U.S. Senate, especially in these times in which the Democratic administration and Congress have borrowed over a trillion and a half dollars during a recession, a debt that is a mortgage on the future of working families and businesses. Brown’s opponent, Massachusetts Attorney General Martha Coakley, answers every question posed to her during the several radio and TV debates between the candidates with the solution that the government needs to spend more money and to raise more taxes, which she euphemistically refers to as “investing in the future.”
Scott Brown as served nearly three decades in the Massachusetts National Guard and currently holds the rank of Lt. Colonial in the Judge Advocate Generals (JAG) Corp. Brown recently spent time in Paraguay advising their government in its transition toward a more democratic system. Besides serving in the Massachusetts Senate, Brown is a practicing attorney, a self employed businessman, who understands the realities of working in the private sector. Martha Coakley is a career politician who, as Middlesex District Attorney and as State Attorney General, developed a reputation as a political fixer for democratic scandals.
If Scott Brown is elected to the U.S. Senate, less than two weeks from now, Washington will experience a political earthquake the likes of which has not been felt in decades. The Democrats in the U.S. Senate will lose their 60 member majority which will mean that they will have to open the door and let the public in on their plans to take over the health care industry. Such issues as cap and trade, another stimulus bill, the right of union members to a private ballot, taxpayer money to groups like ACORN, and a host of other issues will be debated out in the open as befitting a democracy.
I have faith in the Massachusetts voter. We are not as dumb as the liberal elites think we are. I believe that the Massachusetts voter will elect Scott Brown for the same reason they elected Mitt Romney as Governor in 2002 and that was to create a more balanced and moderate government in the state. We need a return to that same balance today in Massachusetts and in Washington. In these perilous times we should demand nothing less. Electing Scott Brown to the U.S. Senate is the most sure-fire way of restoring that balance today.
A Rasmussen poll today as I remember shows this race a 50% Dim, 41% GOP, 1% others and the rest undecided. So Brown may have a chance.
You bet support Brown!
And while you’re at it support Earl Sholley. He’s running against Barney Frank, Check him out he needs our support.

LOL...
If Martha Coakley wins, she solidifies the Democrats hold on the Senate, and thus the reins of power. Scott Brown would be vote #41, and the possibility of holding up some of what the Democrats want to do.
Right. Promises from a pro-abort who supported RomneyCare with its $50 co-pay abortions. Good luck with that. /s
At this point,I could care less about his stance on abortion.The important thing is to stop this gang of cutthroats from strangling the life out of our liberties.
Rino socialist medicine man for the US Senate!!! It has worked out so well for conservatives...let’s just keep it going!
I, for one, want to see this health care bill KILLED, and Scott Brown is running on that. If he's lying and ends up supporting it, he knows he'll lose the next election, since he doesn't have a full six years to cool his heels; he's only completing Teddy the Swimmer's unexpired term.
You can scoff all you like, from a distance, but we in MA have to deal with the political realities of this state. There are many people whose families are solid Democrats, and they've said they're voting for Scott Brown, because they are SO angry at what the Democrats in Congress have been doing. I guess we'll see on Jan. 19th.
BTTT
It would be nice if this guy really had a chance. Time will tell.
I did have a thought, though. We keep hearing from the MSM that Obama wants health care in before the SOTU address.
Perhaps one of the most heinous crimes of the MSM is they never state the real reason for things. For instance, the reason the Dems are in trouble, has NOTHING to do with health care bill.
Perhaps one of the REAL reasons is they see this coming down the pike in two weeks, and they fear it will damage their bill?
That was my thought exactly-if they can’t shove this through before the 19th Reid will refuse to seat Brown,should he win,until after the final vote.Constitutional,legal,what does it matter?To this bunch,nada.

There’s a ton of ironies in this race, not the least of which is that the person who takes Ted Kennedy’s place could end up ending the threat of the health care debacle. But the biggest to me is that they messed with the method by which the seat would be filled following Kennedy’s death. They had changed the law to make sure a Democrat got the other seat, and then changed it AGAIN to make sure the governor could appoint someone to replace Kennedy in time to help push health care over the top. The irony is that had the left the law like it was a Democrat would probably have won a special election at the time. That was before we knew what a disgrace the bill would become.
I love it when the bad guys do something that comes back to bite them in the butt!
What you believe doesn't change facts. He admits he's pro-abortion on his own website.
Those who will not protect the unalienable right to life will not protect the unalienable right to liberty.
I’d love it if he were more pro-life, but he’s about as good as we can expect, and still be elected this year in MA. I know that he’s not rabid, like Martha Coakley, and if he can get some support and BEAT her, we know that he would not be supporting government funded abortions in the health care bill, as he’s already stated, and as we KNOW Martha Coakley would. She’s not looking to reduce ANY abortions, or even put the slightest restrictions on the practice.

The only perfect candidate died about 2000 years ago.
That being the case, you have to choose from what’s left.
Brown opposes Obamacare, he opposes Cap’n’Tax, he opposes amnesty for illegals, he’s pro free enterprise, pro fiscal responsibility, pro 2nd Amendment, pro death penalty, etc.
His score is not perfect, but he’s got it right in many respects.
Whoever wins will be up for re-election in 2012 anyway. In the meantime, Hairy Greed with 59 votes would certainly help.
