Progressives will have a standard bearer, and I suspect she'll draw liberal money from all over the country.

Obama can't back Scott Brown, but I suspect he and Tim Geitner will be happy if she loses. I bet he gives her no support whatsoever. Given that she was pretty much the only bona fide liberal in his administration (actually, she wasn't even technically in his administration), obviously he had to can her.

Scott Brown's truck, FTW, baby. Warren probably drives a Prius or a Beetle or something.



Can you say "squish"?

"Scott Brown's truck,"
The truck is just for show to try to illustrate that he's a working stiff. He drives a fancy SUV most of the time. He also lives in a very high end community in Wrentham, MA.

Did you honestly just say Obama prefers Scott Brown over Elizabeth Warren? You need to stop drinking that "Obama hates liberals" kool-aid.

Massachusetts isn't Texas. Lots of proud Prius drivers up there.

I don't think he hates liberals. I think he just wishes he didn't have to deal with them.

Except that Scott Brown's last election, wherein the truck featured prominently, was also in Massachusetts.

Next to Joe Manchin putting a bullet in the cap and trade bill, Scott Brown's truck ad was the best political ad in the US in years.

Against a candidate who put people to sleep and decided to take a vacation in the middle of the campaign. Elizabether Warren will excite the progressive base. Really excite it.

Don't get me wrong. Brown has the edge as a moderate incumbent who hasn't had the time to really piss anybody off yet. But he's going to have to raise some money and campaign hard.

She's got some early traction, and is now ahead of Brown in a poll. It's very early yet, but this has to have Brown's people peeing in their pants.

A truck being a reason to vote for a person is a new low for our democracy down from preferring to have a beer with GWB over John Kerry.

Confirmed. The Brown people are freaking out.
