Now that the Republican primary is over, Scott Brown is trying to present himself to New Hampshire voters as more moderate and more mainstream than his record shows he is— particularly on issues important to women voters (and to men who like and respect women). Brown has been lying, claiming he has always supported women having the ability to get contraception easily.
Isn't it just like us to be trotting out -- yet again -- these ancient beefcake pictures? Sure, but ask yourself whether they aren't still the most noteworthy thing about our Scott.by KenBefore we get to the, er, meat of this story, could we pause for a bit of, er, dressing? Namely, Cosmo is now doing political endorsements? Huh?It might be useful here to have some political strategists to poll on the expected impact of a Cosmo endorsement.
At this point, no one even knows for sure that opportunistic Massachusetts carpetbagger Scott Brown will actually be the candidate New Hampshire Republicans decide to run against popular Senator Jeanne Shaheen.
"Ooh, gotcha!" apparently thought once and would-be-future Sen. Scott Brown. "Bitch'll never know what hit her!" Maybe, maybe not.by KenNormally the modern blood sport of "gotcha" politics thrives on ignorance and stupidity, a perfect match for the virtually achieved right-wing dream of an electorate -- and a snoozemedia gang -- dominated by people with absolute-zero functional IQs (fIQs).
There's a reason Elizabeth Warren is concerned that Scott Brown is trying to make a comeback-- no matter how far fetched by running against centrist Democrat Jeanne Shaheen, who is up in every single poll so far.
Last night, Rachel Maddow's opening segment was the Scott Brown Story (above). It's an excellent piece of reportage and I recommend it. Thursday he makes his "official" declaration of candidacy to run for Senate (in New Hampshire). There are 4 other Republicans running, including an ex-New Hampshire 2-term U.S. Senator, Bob Smith. He might find it awkward using the carpetbagger charge against Brown because after he was ousted by John Sununu is the 2002 primary he moved to Florida (and ran for Senate there, unsuccessfully, in 2004 and 2010). But, awkward or not, he'll use it.
A few days ago, Elizabeth Warren sent out a note to her followers warning that Scott Brown, "Wall Street's favorite senator," was back for another try… this time in New Hampshire. When Warren beat Brown in 2012, he managed to win 46% of the vote and spend $35,058,354 to achieve that. Far right hate groups like America 360 Committee, Americans forTax Reform, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and Rove's Crossroads GPS poured another $2,192,513 in negative ads into the race smearing Warren.
by Ken"It's the middle of winter," writes Boston Globe columnist Joan Vennochi ("Don't dismiss Scott Brown's chance in N.H."). "Scott Brown has his shirt off, and it can only mean one thing. He’s running for US Senate in New Hampshire."
I don't suppose Lizard Man conferred with Elizabeth Warren before he offered a free pass to reelection to Massachusetts Republican Scott Brown. But the reptilian Schumer was boasting to Isaac Chotiner for an interview in the New Republic that that is exactly what he did in 2012.
I doubt we'll see a Republican primary fight between Florida's Bob Smith and Massachusetts' Scott Brown for the worthless GOP Senate nomination. Brown seems to have made up his mind to run for president governor (of Massachusetts), leaving the field open for Smith, who, unlike Brown, actually did at one time, live in New Hampshire, having moved there from New Jersey. In fact, he was both a Representative (beating someone named Dudley Dudley) and a Senator from that state.
