1. Reid should play hardball

Strip out the 'carve out' that Brown received for his hedge fund buddies.

3. Exactly.

Fuck this guy. He cannot have it both ways.

[Phx_Dem]

9. Absolutely. n/t

[ozymandius]

2. That's what cretins do.

Make life difficult for everyone else while whoring oneself.

[Mass]

4. Not surprised, but this should tell us that they should not be listened to.

He weakens the bill , then decided to vote against it.

BTW, for those who yesterday were wandering why his polls in MA were so high, media bias is not the only thing. The White House and Senate leader making him a de-facto reasonable Republican who seems to have more leverage than Kerry is part of the issue.

[Mass]

7. Apparently, the Dems seem ready to oblige him!!!

5. This is after the deal he made with the WH. When will the WH learn?

6. I think he should do all that republican JAZZ

cause I bet he loses his re-election bid.

8. Every fucking time

A progressive takes a step towards a conservative to reach a compromise, the conservative takes another step backwards. There is no compromising with them. They don't want compromise, they want a holy war.

10. Scott Brown is pond scum, as far as I am concerned.

You should see him gloating on Boston TV twice a week, getting himself photo ops when he really should just shut up.

Good example was when there were floods in Mass in March and the slime Senator got on the TV to say he was taking care of it...usually that's the Governor's job, and the good Governor Patrick was in the next town, actually working on it. Brown was doing nothing to help.

11. TYT has a video about this, too.

Scott Brown, elected to make the stupid Tea Party voters happy in Mass, now making deals for the big banks and investment houses in Mass.
