In Mass. Senate race, GOP's Brown embracing Obama

Associated Press / February 2, 2012

BOSTON—During the 2010 special election to fill the seat left vacant by the death of U.S. Sen. Edward Kennedy, then-candidate Scott Brown vowed to be the "41st" vote against President Barack Obama's sweeping health care overhaul.

Two years later, the Republican Massachusetts senator still opposes what he calls "Obamacare" but has found a lot more to love about the Democratic president and his agenda.

While many Republican lawmakers have used Obama as the ultimate campaign foil, Brown has touted his bipartisanship as a key asset in his re-election bid as he hopes to fend off a challenge from his chief Democratic rival Elizabeth Warren.

As proof, Brown has gone out of his way to highlight common ground with Obama.

5. If you give the voters a choice between a Democrat and a "Democrat",

they'll pick the Democrat every time.

6. I hope that people of MA are smarter than to believe Brown's death bed conversion

He knows that Elizabeth Warren is a much stronger and better candidate than he had in 2010 and he knows that President Obama will be on the ballot and will win the state by a landslide, so he is now trying to rewrite history.

Obama Is going to win here by Landslide.With Obama looking better and better against Romney Brown Is trying to appeal to
Obama voters.Romney may not even show up this campagin at all In state he was governor of.

Hopefully all Obama voters vote for Elizabeth Warren.Who know she could be a future Presidential or vice presidential Candiate.
