Senator to tour Roslindale Square
By adamg - 4/26/12 - 10:35 am
Should you wish to adjust your schedule for Friday morning, Scott Brown will be ambling about the Square around 10 a.m., going into stores (whose owners have already been asked if that's OK), shaking hands, getting the lay of the land, doing whatever it is senators do when they visit the hustings.

And then he'll wander over to
And then he'll wander over to the nearest talk radio station and whine that somebody was mean to him?
Nice to see
our US Senator ambling around with the common folk instead of Nantucket, Louisberg Sq and Hyannisport
Not welcomed in Roslindale
That’s an odd move for him, shouldn’t he be making pit stops in Newton, Wellesley, etc. instead? What’s the point in rubbing elbows with the lower and middle class?
Speak For Your Liberal Self
He is more than welcome in my neighborhood, in fact next election i plan on holding sign for him AGAIN in Rozy Sq.
Scott Brown's parents
Scott Brown's parents divorced when he was young. His single working mother was on welfare during his childhood.
How about that millionaire Harvard professor?
Uh...don't watch much TV?
Warren's family was lower working class in Oklahoma. When her dad had a heart attack, the family lost its car in order to keep up with the medical bills.
If you're going to call Warren a millionaire for what she's currently obtained in life, then the least you can do is be honest about the same for Brown. He was just given $700,000 in advance for his memoir book and owns quite a bit of property. Compare apples and apples.
Given money for a book - like
Given money for a book - like Deval? Horrors!
I'm not 'calling' Warren a millionaire. Warren is a millionaire.
So is Scott Brown
So why do you infer some sort of dichotomy?
It's the bubble
so don't bother, facts bounce right off it. anti-reality exists inside it.
Really though, Warren worked her ass off to get to where she was, just like Brown. The amusing thing to me was she associated as a Republican, until she realized just how far into crazyland they went. She decided her honor and integrity was more important then snuggling up to the moonbats who apparently think calling her "professor" is some sort of slight in Massachusetts.
Must be an election coming up
Dude's never done shit for me, or anyone I know for that matter.
OO000oooo
But Liz is just such a superstar, she must have done SO0o much for you and your moonbat friends. He is one of the only politician who votes based on what he believes in, not what his party favors.

As far as I've seen he hasn't been the maverick he promised, and has been voting with his caucus almost 100% of the time, unless it's a vote he wants to spin back home here.
IMO, you need to do a little bit better at finding a middle way if that's how you want to position yourself.
For everything I've read his constituent services sucks big time (although that might not be fair comparing it to Teddys).
What Scott Brown believes in
Apparently, he believes in going easy on the banks that ripped people off and caused the Great Recession, because watering down financial reform is quite nearly the very first thing he did upon entering office.
His constituency works on Wall Street, and I don't mean Charlestown.
Warren commercial has a tone problem.
I haven't been closely following this race, and I don't watch a lot of TV, but I have seen a Warren commercial.
I think Warren is very smart, that she is probably right about regulatory laxity having had a major role in causing the financial crisis, and that she is particularly well-versed in the areas that require effective and meaningful (and not silly) regulation, however...
The tone of that commercial will win Cambridge, Brookline, Newton, and other similar municipalities (there aren't that many) (and maybe UHub) for her, but that's not enough to beat a sitting U.S. Senator, regardless of how credential-less he otherwise might be.
No matter how deserving General Electric is to be called out for its lacking U.S. tax payments, I just don't think that the majority of the electorate will go for that - if they would, there would have been WAY more people sitting in Dewey Square.
Also
seems quiet on the home front.
Both her and in the presidential election.
I know Obama isn't officially kicking it off until May 5th, but I expected Warren to have more of a visible presence already, especially after Coakleys huge campaigning mistakes.
