Herald Endorses GOP’s Brown In Senate Race
The Boston Herald has announced the newspaper’s endorsement of Republican Scott Brown for U.S. Senate.
In the endorsement, the Herald says:
Brown talks about being the ’41st senator,’ adding to Republican ranks and depriving Democrats of the ’supermajority’ which has allowed them to ride roughshod over the nation’s agenda. But he would go to Washington as his own man – and as ours, beholden to no one, except Massachusetts voters.

I live in Australia, and I can honestly say that we wold NOT put up with such bribery and fraud by the democratic congress and President.A stop valve must be in place in future for this not to happen again. How can a Pres,give an exec order to keep his records from the people that voted for him. IT IS A CRIME against the people. I dont say there is anything wrong in his past but it smells of mafia type rulings,what with so called Czars that dont have to be approved by congress but can make decisions that affect the whole country. Thank God I’m not there,I would probably lose my cooland do something criminal.
Its a shame to see such a great country go down. This was planned way ahead and is being assisted by congress whether they realise it or not. I think the biggest surprize is that Obama gave INTERPOL authority over USA police.This means that Obama can get interpol to arrest any americans that the local police wont.
Next Tuesday when Mr. Brown wins (and he will) it will be the Scott heard round the world!
Are you listening Congress?
Trouble is Obama and his gang off thieves will hold up the appointment of Brown until after the Health Care vote so the stand in sitting in Kennedy’s seat can vote their way. This is the most corrupt bunch of thieves I have ever seen in any country. IMPEACH !!!!!!
Mr. Scott Brown will win in Massachusetts and Mr.Obama will be the ‘earliest lame duck’ in the ‘White House’so he might as well go back to Hawaii and pick pineapples. That he’d be suited for…not for president.
It would be huge to get the 41st vote in there but to have it be DEAD kennedys vote that would be awesome. Deads brother JFK would roll over in his grave if he saw what DEAD kennedy was up to. What a worthless pile.
