Scott Brown's Nov. 2014 loss in New Hampshire happened years ago. After his 2010 election in Massachusetts the first thing he did when he got to Washington DC was to talk about compromise. Where did that get him? Rush Limbaugh

11/5/14, "Wendy Davis and Alison Grimes Were Myths," Rush Limbaugh transcript

"Scott Brown? Scott Brown could have won that race. He could have won that race. But he lost that race years ago. Scott Brown lost this election last night years ago. He was elected on a premise to stop Obamacare when he got elected in Massachusetts. What does he do? Gets to Washington, starts talking about compromise. "Well, I represent a bunch of northeastern liberals." Well, where did it get you? To me this is not complicated."...(item under photos of Davis and Grimes)

Scott Brown wins Ted Kennedy seat, Jan. 2010















Comment: I heard Scott Brown in an interview right after his 2010 arrival in Washington, DC. He was already a different person, no resemblance to the historic upset, man of the people winner of Ted Kennedy's seat. He was withholding, standoffish in an exchange merely meant to say, hi, Scott, wow, you're here after your big upset, winning Ted Kennedy's seat, how's it going? Brown's know it all, superior Beltway demeanor has lost him two elections.

"How did a little-known, conservative state senator manage to beat a Democratic attorney general to get himself elected to the “Ted Kennedy seat” in deep-blue Massachusetts?"...
