Scott Brown and Howie Carr are doing joint book signings in Acton and Winchester according

to Brown's Facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/ScottBrownforSenate?fref=ts

Is it smart to appear with someone so identified as RW or does he think that he can do this under the radar with just his fans knowing? I wonder if the MA media will cover this.

Posting in case this could inform any MA Democrat in that area.

Interesting. He won Winchester, but barely, and it is Markey's territory. Mass Jan 2013 #3
So Howie doesn't mind that Scotty voted to raise his taxes? chelsea0011 Jan 2013 #4

he has gotten passes because of his looks. Not to mention, in spite of his often repeated comment that his fans repeat - he does not seem to know the details on the bills that he claims to read in their entirety.

I doubt he could be that stupid (intellectually) as he did graduate with good grades from Tufts and went to Boston college Law School.

It seems clear that if he wants to run for Senate, he won't have right wing opposition. So, it seems that he counts on the media not covering when he drops the bipartisan act and panders to the right.

when he said that he had to clean the garage or Gail would not speak to him. Then he said that he thought about that for a while then cleaned it ANYWAY.

Ran one of the most nasty campaigns you can imagine with the help of the Boston Herald writers and Carr leading the way.Non stop,day after day after day with the fake Indian meme and character assassination of Liz Warren.This went way beyond a joke here and there.The attacks were brutal and unrelenting and Brown egged it on every step of the way.Not fond of Capitalism,but Warren is one tough customer with a touch of Left blood running through her veins.

Brown is a complete fraud with his "working class hero" bullshit.Capn Howie Carr,as he is affectionately known by his faithful Boston Herald minions hasn't been well since he guaranteed a glorious victory for the "working class hero",wall street apologist,and featured guest of Kings and Queens.Maybe the joint venture is a healing process for Carr's blues.


Election night, I lost the best friend I ever had
Well, Brownie off and left me,
make me feel so bad

Well, it's early in the morning Brownie
and I'm feeling blue for you
Well, it's early in the morning Brownie
I want you to tell me,tell me
what are we gonna do

Well, I'll wait till next time,Brownie
they tell me every day brings some change
Well, I'll wait till next time,
they tell me every day brings some change
Well, I love you, love you Brownie,
ain't it a crying shame

Election night I lost the best friend I ever had
Election night I lost the best friend I ever had
Well,Brownie gone off and lost the election
and make me feel so bad.

Lyrics to Last Night :
Last night I lost the best friend I ever had
Last night I lost the best friend I ever had
Well, she gone off and left me, oh, make me feel so bad
Well, it's early in the morning when my love come falling down for you
Well, it's early in the morning, baby, when my love come falling down for you
I want you to tell me, baby, tell me what are we gonna do
Well, I'll wait till tomorrow, they tell me every day brings some bottle of change
Well, I'll wait till tomorrow, they tell me every day brings some bottle of change
Well, I love you, love you baby, honey, ain't it a crying shame
Last night I lost the best friend I ever had
Last night I lost the best friend I ever had
Well, she gone off and left me, oh, make me feel so bad
Last night I lost the best friend I ever had
Last night I lost the best friend I ever had
Well, she gone off and left me, oh, make me feel so bad
Well, it's early in the morning when my love come falling down for you
Well, it's early in the morning, baby, when my love come falling down for you
I want you to tell me, baby, tell me what are we gonna do
Well, I'll wait till tomorrow, they tell me every day brings some bottle of change
Well, I'll wait till tomorrow, they tell me every day brings some bottle of change
Well, I love you, love you baby, honey, ain't it a crying shame
Last night I lost the best friend I ever had
Last night I lost the best friend I ever had
