I am voting for Scott Brown because of John Kerry...that's not a knock on Kerry so bear with me here. We already have a liberal/male version of Warren in John Kerry. I want a balanced party representation in DC as its in the best interest of the state.

As a simplistic example, lets say a Republican controlled house/senate is going to select military bases for closure as part of the defecit reduction. We all know that the political parties are two "different teams" in DC. What is the incentive for the Repubs to care about the interest of a state with a Dem gov and 2 hard left Dems? Do you think they will give MA consideration over states that have a voice from their own party? Think about it.

So you would vote for him based on the possibility of bases being closed??? The democrats will hold on to the Senate, can you trust Scott Brown to vote against the republcian machine???

Many of these bases should be closed, and the war profiteers should step to the back of the line, instead of always being in the front..

Nothing on her Brown comments???

Brown is running scared from Romney/Ryan, and has more photos of him and Obama than he does of him and Romney... identity crisis???
The point is that blaming Wall Street, Washington or anyone else for the cost of higher education is unfounded.

Colleges set tuition. If they need to pay that level of salary to attract the best instructors, then that explains high costs. For her to complain about a phenomenon from which she personally benefited is a little hypocritical, dontcha think? What is she trying to say? That the rest of us need to cough up more dough so that she and her friends can keep their beach houses on the Vineyard?

I guess, but still does not clarify if her salary is special or the norm for Harvard Law... nice gig if you can get it.

Do not have any friends or relatives who went to Harvard Law, so cannot comment.. all the lawyers I knew when I worked seemed to go to Suffolk part time..

I never said she got special treatment. All I said was that she's not really in a place to complain. It's like saying: "can you believe what I get paid? Someone needs to do something about this!"

I support Brown because Elizabeth Warren GRINS TO MUCH you can't trust a person who constantly grins (they are full of it)
