Elizabeth Warren passes Scott Brown in polls

It's over a year before any Senatorial election. We care about this, why exactly?

And it's over a year until the Presidential election....

If you don't care about these things why do you come here?

Actually, the Primaries start in a few months and the debate already have started.

I come here to discuss relevant things. Not discuss polls about something far in the future.

Yet you have now made what? a half dozen posts in a thread about something you deem irrelevant.
 
Elizabeth Warren passes Scott Brown in polls

(NECN: Alison King) - He's the most popular politician in Massachusetts and for months Republican Senator Scott Brown has been leading the pack of democratic challengers -- until Elizabeth Warren arrived on the scene last week.

The latest poll shows Harvard Law Professor Elizabeth Warren with a slight edge over Scott Brown, 46-44 percent.

Not with the mood of this country, good luck, but when a New York district went GOP for the 1st time since 1923 it should give you pause not to get your liberal hopes too high.

His opposition beat herself in that election. Scott made it into the senate by the skin of his teeth.
 
I disagree with any conservative that wants Brown to win.

Having representatives that have no principals, and don't fall in line with core conservative beliefs, only dilute the party and make us less effective in the long run. He has shown us that he is more interested in his political career, than standing for Something.

It's not that all conservatives have to agree on everything, we don't, but you have to have a belief system that resembles conservatism, otherwise your not a conservative, your a self serving politician, or a trojan horse lib.

Some conservatives say at least he's a vote some of the time. There's more to holding office than voting, and we'd be better off with a strong small party, then a bunch of Rino's that spoil the bunch.

what does this *belief system* consist of?

In the context of my post, I was referring to what are a persons core beliefs.

Relating the question to conservatism, a conservative believe's in individual rights and freedoms, limited government, and the free markets...

she did suck as a candidate

And he sucks as a Senator.

He is toast.

His 5 point win over Coakley was solid but an energized base and low overall voter turnout is what drove Brown to victory.

About a million less people came out to the polls in January 2010 than did in November 2008.

He became a rock star as a candidate...He had that great line, when he said it not Ted Kennedy's seat, it's the peoples seat.

That's why conservatives don't like him, because he talked a good game in the election, but was MIA as soon as he got elected.

I don't think Martha Coakley was a bad candidate...I think that's just an excuse...I think that election was a referendum on Obama's policies, particularly Obamacare.

She was complacent, don't you think? Cocky and entitled, at least 6 points worth.

And he does seem more moderate than I thought he'd be. Not sure if cons are mad at him for that but I'd like to see all of them a little less party line-ish.

One thing is for certain, in twenty years the Republican Party will become a fringe party. The far right has driven out just about every moderate Republican. If you are not right wing bat shit crazy you don't belong. As the Hispanic population increases, and the Republican Party continues to shrink based on it's prerequisite that acceptable Republicans must be bat shit crazy right wing fanatics and nothing else, the Democratic Party will quickly double the size of the Republican Party. It's just a matter of time. Then you can worry about real socialist policies, much more than the bullshit you claim to be socialist policies currently.

It's the Small Tent Republican Belief System.
