Ughhh Scott Brown Is seething At The Prospect of Kerry's Appointment and an opening in the senate

[outsideworld]

In response to a question, he said Sen. John Kerry (D-MA), a rumored candidate for Secretary of State, would be an "excellent" choice for the job. If Kerry vacates his seat, Brown would have the option of making another run for senator.

"We'll see what happens," Brown said.

you can tell he is just itching for kerry to take the job so he jumps in

DAMMIT KERRY YOU DESERVE A CABINET POSITION BUT DAMN we cant allow this little weasel back in the senate

[ProSense]

1. Fuck Scott Brown.

Geez. It's amazing how much Democrats and progressives whine about big bad Republicans.

Seriously, fuck 'em.

[hrmjustin]

2. Brown probably will run for governor.

[Tarheel_Dem]

3. I, for one, hope the President won't do this. Unless Deval Patrick runs for the seat, I think we...

lose it. Is there anyone in the House who's high profile enough to win a special election, besides Barney Frank, who's retiring?

[Anthony McCarthy]

6. Mike Capuano

who should have gotten the nomination instead of Coakley. He'd have been a good Senator and he's already run statewide during that nomination.

Though I'd like Duval Patrick to run for it because he's been elected governor twice.

19. He lost the primary in his last bid for the Senate. I like him, but if he couldn't defeat

Coakley, what makes you think he could do it this time? I'm not trying to be difficult, I would love him in the Senate, but airc, hardly anyone even knew he was in the race and the Party Leadership didn't seem to give him much support.

[Thrill]

4. Kerry likely wants to be SOS

[pinboy3niner]

11. CNN is reporting today that the WH likes Rice for that job. nt

[RKP5637]

5. IMO it's a bad move for Kerry to move to Secretary of State. I have a real hunch the MA

dem seat vacated well might end up R again. For example, look at what happened to Kansas when Governor Kathleen Sebelius left her governorship to become Secretary of Health and Human Services ... the KS gov. went even further RW. In fact, if any further RW, they'll have to fly a teabag as the state of KS flag.

[CTyankee]

8. MA ain't Kansas.

[RKP5637]

10. Having lived in MA for years I sure know that, but I sure wouldn't want MA giving any opening to

a potential R win. MA voted in Brown and also Romney ...

[CTyankee]

20. Voted in Romney...you mean in the repub primary there?

[former9thward]

21. He was governor there.

[CTyankee]

22. sorry, of course. But, then, you know Romney wasn't REALLY Romney there back when they

voted him in...or maybe he was and it was the OTHER Romney that won...oops, I dunno....

[RKP5637]

23. Oh, no ... I was thinking of when he was voted in as governor of MA. n/t

[Thinkingabout]

7. Surely there is a very upstanding citizen in Massachusetts who is available to run as a Democrat.

I think the citizens should start looking around for a really good replacement.

[Submariner]

12. Rep. Ed Markey could win it

very environmentally friendly pol.

[Thinkingabout]

16. There you go, partially solved, get him elected and beat any republican.

[Autumn Colors]

15. Rachel Maddow (nt)

[Thinkingabout]

17. As long as this seat does not go republican, I don't care. Anybody but a repub.

[MrSlayer]

9. He's angry at the prospect?

One would think he'd be thrilled.

I know what you meant.

Kerry needs to remain in the Senate.

[KamaAina]

13. Salivating, not seething

either way,

[outsideworld]

14. seething because he sees it as a revengeful way to get back in after warren kicked him out

[Beaverhausen]

18. Why does everyone think Brown would get the job? Can't the governor appoint someone?

what is the law?
