      <![CDATA[As someone who will certainly be voting for Elizabeth Warren in the next election, I have to say Scott Brown hasn't been terrible. He's smart enough, personable enough, and reasonable enough that I can accept we disagree about a shitload of things, because at least he's moderate about it. I don't like him, and I want him replaced, but at least we're not stuck with a Boehner or Walsh. <br />
<br />
And yeah, he was never a teabagger. They might have wanted him to be, but he's been middle of the road since the day he got elected against a dumb, entitled twat who thought she deserved to win the election no matter how little effort she put in. She's corrupt, a censorship fan, and an idiot. Frankly we're better served by Brown than we would have been by Coakley.

      <![CDATA[This is of course unfortunate. Scott Brown is many things, but sadly "stupid" isn't one of them. He is running in Massachusetts, and his re-election (and potentially greater heights later) depends on convincing the voters he's a bipartisan idealist, not a party-line hack. And the polls suggest it's working.<br />
<br />
If course, his <i>voting record</i> is "party-line hack" all the way. But people never look at that, or they'd have long ago tossed the Maine Twins from the Senate.

      <![CDATA[I'm sure Brown is a hypocrite douchebag, but there are laws I don't agree with that I would fight to repeal if I were in office, but since they're on the books, and since so many laws are to my disadvantage, I take advantage of them.  I don't even think it's wrong of him to do that in this case (though again, I'm sure he sucks and all...)

      <![CDATA[When was Brown ever hailed as a teabagger?  He was obviously a moderate Republican, nothing less could have won a Senate seat in Massachusetts, even with a milquetoast empty suit running on the Democratic ticket.

The people are rightfully coming to the conclusion the Republicans never learn and never admit they were wrong.

      <![CDATA[I counted 8 times they squeezed his name "Scott Brown" into a one minute add.  Name recognition is important in politics, but generally in life there is also a thing called subtlety.
