Since Senator Scott Brown took office in 2010, he has done a good job courting media and honing his image, but I’m not a fan, and I will not be voting for him next year. A new advert from the League of Conservation Voters points to a cozy relationship Brown has developed with big oil. So much for being a voice for the people or a champion for the environment.
In addition to his poor environmental record, Brown has continued to largely ignore the gay community in MA. Brown’s questionable environmental and LGBT ratings really are troublesome, but the fact that he’s done little to work with Obama and play the role of a negotiator who can go between both parties to help break the gridlock is perhaps what I find most disappointing. I thought his image as a “moderate” meant that he’d play a leading role like Sen. Snowe (ME) or the former Sen. Chaffee (RI). However he’s opted to fall lock-step with the Republican leadership. What a pity, because had he opted another path he could have truly been a “maverick” and made a difference while elevating the profile of the distinguished seat he currently represents.
Do I have high expectations from Sen Brown? Absolutely and so should you.

He’s kind of a douche, but would it be wrong to say he’s kind of hot? : )

Agreed. 100%. He won’t be getting my vote, either.

Couldn’t agree more. The “People’s Seat” promises have turned out to be nothing more than empty campaign rhetoric.
Our team at MassUniting has been working hard to hold Scott Brown and his fellow Washington politicians accountable for their out-of-step agenda. You might be interested in our first TV ad, which went up over the summer – still available at BobbleHeadBrown.com.
