Scott Brown (R-MA) Says He's Independent

Brown Says He's Independent
Sen. Scott Brown (R-MA) is up with a new ad for his re-election campaign which doesn't mention his party affiliation and stresses that he's "turned out to be unpredictably independent and beholden to no one."

Good luck with that, Senator Treasure-Trail.

of Elizabeth Warren.


Honestly, if his policies are lined up with the GOP, he's still a GOP-er.

What a dope.

His whole career has been beating the odds and he just made the kids in Massachusetts odds a little longer by voting to make their college loans a lot more expensive, at the request of his real constituents the wall street banks.

I live in Massachusetts and I cannot wait to vote this fraud out. Facts do not lie--Scott Brown is owned by Koch Brothers & also by Norquist. Why is it that elected officials are allowed to sign pledges by non-elected private citizens or corporations???
