Scott Brown is the Republican candidate running for the late Sen. Teddy Kennedy's seat in the senate. And today, I formally endorse Sen. Brown for senate in Massachusetts.
It is time for those of us that complain about the ability for the Republicans to turn tail and run to say now we make a stand.
As I wrote last month, the Republicans have bought the conventional wisdom that any Democrat would win this seat. Why that is the case is beyond me. This is a special election. Turnout is always low in such an election. And in an election in which the opposition is clearly fired up, the Republican National Committee should be giving cash, more than $50,000, and a shipload of volunteers.
Speaking of opposition enthusiasm, if John McCormick of The Weekly Standard is correct, Sen. Brown is trailing the Democrat candidate, Martha Coakley, by only 11%. With three weeks to go and the big mo on Sen. Brown's side, there could be an upset in the making.
BTW, the Coakley campaign is hiding the candidate. Mrs. Coakley is not making media appearances and will not debate Sen. Brown one-on-one.
The only way to send a shiver up the spines of the Democrat party is to encourage Massachusetts voters to vote for Sen. Scott Brown and give the Republicans a much needed victory in the Northeast.
That is why I endorse Sen. Scott Brown for senate from Massachusetts.
