Scott Brown Forgets What State He's Speaking In

CATHERINE THOMPSON – DECEMBER 6, 2013, 7:03 AM EST

It's no secret that Scott Brown is being courted to run for U.S. Senate in New Hampshire.

But the former Massachusetts senator seemed to forget just where he was speaking Thursday night when asked during a visit to Londonderry, N.H. if he felt pressured to run against incumbent Democrat Jeanne Shaheen.

"What I've heard from the Republicans up here is they're thankful that I've been around for a year helping them raise money, helping them raise awareness as to the issues that are affecting not only people here in Massachusetts -- I mean New Hampshire -- but also in Massachusetts obviously, and Maine," Scott said, according to video released by the Democratic super PAC American Bridge. "I've been to Maine, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Connecticut. I've been all over the New England certainly talking and helping people raise money."

Brown wrote an op-ed Tuesday that cited New Hampshire as a state where the Affordable Care Act was floundering, further stoking speculation that he was seriously considering a run. But the former senator hasn't yet made public any decision about running against Shaheen.

Scott Brown...rejected by voters as not good enough for his home State of Massachusetts ,

Why would he be good enough for us here in New Hampshire?

for posting here, Don.

Scotty seems like a carpet bagger in need of state to spread his rw propaganda. Since Mass kicked him out of the Senate.. he's obviously thinking maybe NH is a better fit for his particular brand of bullshit.
