Why isn't anyone concerned with Brown's knee jerk reaction answer of Antonin Scalia to the "who's your model Supreme Court Justice?". That's an eye opener. Not the most fair-minded, bi-partisan choice from our so-called fair-minded, bi-partisan Senator. Sure, when the crowd started to boo he slipped in Kennedy, Roberts, and Sotomayor but he went straight to the most conservative Justice on the Court Speaks volumes to me. His "most bi-partisan" Senator schtick holds no water either, yes - statistics show he votes "across party lines" almost 50% of the time, but those votes are calculated. It's all part of the package in an effort to present him in a bi-partisan light. Remember, he won a special election 2 years ago - his party leaders have known he'd be running again soon. He votes with the Republicans on all issues of substance, Warren isn't making up his voting record - just look it up. He was weak on some simple, direct questions too very disappointing. Would not answer the "President Romney" question, would not answer the Mitch McConnell question, woudln't even answer the question about Lawyer/ethics after the accusations he and his campaign have dropped on Warren. And he's a lawyer himself. He's been nothing but a disappointment to me in this campaign - and he has stood with the Republicans, holding the rest of the country hostage over a potential 3.5% tax increase for the wealthiest 2% of the population. Just can't risk Republican control of the Senate.

HEY JC... Do you really think Warren will be more Bi-partisan? Face it - you just want everyone to be a Democrat so they will think like you!

JG, yes, I do believe that the good professor will be more bi-partisan. I believe that because she stands for the middle class, not the banks, not the oil companies. She wants to build our infrastructure and help our children with college all of which helps the whole country, not just the top 1 or 2%. She understands that trickle down down isn't how to build the middle class. It is built from the middle out!

Mickey D, The middle class that Warren wants to help is actually the lower class. She has no interest in creating private sector jobs or enabling hard working citizens to earn their own living and bulid wealth for themselves and their own families. She is only interested in taking money from the people and organizations that earn it themselves and using it for programs that give it to those who don't. Banks, oil companies, General Electric, are all companies that employ 10s of thousands of people enabling those people to live off their own efforts instead of living off the public dole. She wants to take more money from them and hand it out. She is the most partisan democrat I've seen.

She does get it - she is part of the rigging. She exploited affirmative action laws to be the only law professor hired by Harvard who went to a public law school. She and her husband now make 300K each to teach one class. She also traded on her position to take law clients who are big corporations to deny claims against people who sought recovery from injury.

Success is open to anyone who works hard and understand how the system works - Prof Warren is Exhibit A.

Well said Bill. And yes Mickey, lets look at how Scott Brown votes. He votes the issue, not the party. His votes have not been popular with his party at times because he has the courage to vote based on the situation and facts of what he feels is best for all. Not just his party. The bills and proposals that are voted on usually have many topics in them and he will not allow someones "pork" to be slipped into a bill. He'll vote yes or no even if it ruffles a few of his partys feathers. Warren will ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS vote with the liberal dems no matter how the bill is phrased or what it will do to us. Warren and her occupiers can go camping together somewhere after next months vote and talk about the big bad rich people and how they want some of what the "haves" have. Of course she won't actually be camping with them. She'll be in a five star hotel telling everyone she is one of the regular people. Warren is the problem, not the solution.

As Senator Brown pointed out, the oil companies are also the biggest tax payers. If you tax these companies higher, we (the middle class) are the ones who will pay the price. You think the gas prices are high now and the oil to heat our homes will go even higher. Professeor Warren is part of the problem of higher tuitions and student loans being sky high. She makes $350 thousand dollars a year to teach two classes!! I also noticed Mickey D refuses to call Scott Brown Senator Brown but Ms. Warren is Professor Warren! As for campaign contributions, where are Ms Warrens coming from? All the Lefties in Hollywood, you wake up, most of them are dummer than dirt and make their living playing pretend! If Ms. Warren is so concerned about everyone paying their fair share, why didn't she check off that box on her income taxes to pay more? Senator Brown (like Kennedy) reaches across the aisle all the time, that's why he's the 2nd most bi-partisan Senator in Washington and Ms. Warren would vote 100% with the Democrats!

Carol Mazzetta- your defense of oil companies is deeply flawed, for a variety of reasons. First of all, the subsidies that go to the already highly profitable oil companies come from taxpayer dollars. Those are dollars that could be used to reduce the deficit or pay for military costs or any number of otherwise sacred cows among Conservatives. Second, the oil companies pay ZERO federal income tax, AND they get huge subsidies and privileges that other industries would kill for...industries whose growth would benefit our economy via job creation, or energy independence, or environmental protection. But instead, YOUR taxpayer dollars are going into the pockets of already well-heeled, well-connected beneficiaries of a commodity-based industry that does everything it can to protect the status-quo and to stifle innovation in the energy industry. And exactly how would eliminating the huge SUBSIDIES to the oil companies change the price at the pump for the middle class? Are you not a true believer in America? In our 'free market' economy, isn't it supply and demand that determines the price of a commodity? How would reducing the amount of taxpayer dollars that get siphoned into the balance sheets of the oil companies change the supply or demand for their product? It wouldn't at all. You and your allies are being played for suckers.

Richard - you are so right about the oil companies. You should not buy any of their products - you show them. Also, you should try and find your own oil, get it out of the ground, refine it and get it to your house. It would cost you a few hundred million to get started and it will be risky, but what the heck -it looks easy when Exxon does it. They just sit back and rake in the bucks.

I have to agree -- I am so sick of the ads from both sides. Anybody with a brain knows what Warren did, we don't need to be reminded of it 5x per hour. Scott Brown is a RINO which would have made him a target for Republicans, except the four of them couldn't come up with anybody better.

Brown did exactly what he said he would do and did work across the aisle, which was often frustrating.

But here's the choice: the guy who already has the job and has shown he can play the middle and understands it's time to shut off the government tap on our wallets, or the gal who never served in government and keeps saying things like "we need to fund..." without saying how she would pay for it? The gal who is following the Marxist drum-banging about redistributing wealth, or the guy who came from nothing and knows what it's like to have to pull up your big-boy pants and earn your keep?

There's a great poster out there that asks, "Can we just talk about who we are going to vote for without a fight?" In this particular case, it's pretty easy...

Her claim in being a minority is morally wrong. Her claim that she was a child who believed her parents is Intellectual Dishonesty since it wasn't a child who made the claim to get the benefit. The average person would have had the moral conviction to try to do what was right and would have inquired or was she just STUPID? We have more than our share of Stupid and Immoral Politicians. We don't need another.

that comment about not being one of your students summed it up exactly...her condescending way of lecturing all of us is over the top...
go scott go
wake up out of your brainwashed msnbc stupor people!

Why can't you people call him "SENATOR BROWN?

Jean:
Think. Warren is saying the same things over and over again because her handlers have trained her. It is all canned. Beyond the oil compnaies, millionaires and billionaires she has no idea what is going one. She is locked up in the Boston branch of Disney World - Harvard. She doesn't feel what the middle class feels. She isn't touched by the insanity of the world. Scott Brown is in the real trenches each and every day. He knows the issues and understands the problems. Warren is the new puppet that the Deocrats have come up with who can memorize well and articulate clearly, but has no idea what she is talking about.

Audience reaction was skewed. I knew someone who went and the room was packed with Dems and Warren supporters. The place is run by a former Dem congressman. Brown wins points by going to a debate in left wing venue with a moderator who works for a network as biased as Fox in the other direction.

I hope she is "in lock step" w/ Obama. After what the right wing has done to this country no way in hell I'm voting for another one.

Absolutely!!! Well said!!!!

Get a clue...GW spent over 11 trillion in the eight years before Obama! GW started with a roaring economy and a budget surplus, and he blew it all by giving huge tax breaks to his already wealthy amigos (who were doing very well even before his benevolence) and by keeping his Iraq war off the books so the cost to the federal budget would not be apparent. At least the 5 trillion that Obama has spent has kept the economy solvent so that we're not in a major depression.

Richard, the first stimulus was signed by the former president...so your theory that Obama's spending kept the economy solvent applies to Bush too, in the end...just saying. Also, his benevolence towards the oil companies kept the price of a commodity very low (compared to today's prices). Considering the ratio of dollars spent to economic growth percentage during Obama's administration, the trillions of dollars that Obama has spent has not been even nearly as effective as it should be. If Bush was so terrible and he left a horrendous mess, didnt we hand the responsibility of cleaning up to Obama? Undoubtedly, it is a responsibility that he has shirked, because the fiscal situation is the same if not worse than it was when he was elected. He has promoted his own liberal agenda, ignoring the real needs and values of the ignorant voters who elected him 4 years ago, while superficially appearing to achieve the contrary

Obama over the last two years was unable to pass anything as the House turned everything down. If elected again we shall have 4 years of nothing which we as a country cannot afford. The House will not change and if the Senate remains Democrat with a Senate Pres who refuses everything the House presents we will likely go over the cliff in the next Obama Administration. He will however blame Bush.

I got a better idea. Let's elect a majority conservative senate and Romney. Then the country can start recovering. Brown won this debate and warren looked petulant. Go Scott.

Hard to see how returning to the same failed policy's of Bush's 8 year reign of terror is a "better" idea. The fact is the country is already recovering from that nightmare. Brown is a nice guy, no doubt. But he is in over his head. He can't think on his own 2 feet. His bi-partisan schtick is just that. he crossed the aisle on the easy votes, the votes that his leadership LET him cross the aisle on. When it gets down to the tough votes, he will be in Mitch McConnell's pocket. That you can bet on! Professor Warren looked like the intelligent, thoughtful, dignified person she is...anything but petulant!

Independent you say! Then talk like one. The Democrats were in power for years prior to the economic failure. Frank and Dodd should be in Jail. I would put Bush beside them since he did not close the border over his 8 years. How many terrorists crossed the Border???? Obama is a greater failure. We have only on HOPE.

John, What do independents "talk like"? Like they have brains and can think for themselves? Frank and Dodd should be in jail? Really? And the shysters that run Wall Street shouldn't be? How do you figure Obama is a greater failure? Because the republicans came out on day one and said their goal was to make Obama a one term president? Bush still deserves blame! For 8 years he mis-manged this country at the behest of his neocon handlers, let's take a look: Tax cuts we couldn't afford, squandered an inherited surplus, started an Iraqi war that was completely unnecessary by lying about WMD, ill-prepared and poorly handled hurricane Katrina, and a near-collapse of the entire US economy to name but a few of Bush's blunders (in spite of your baseless claim the democrats were in power for years prior to the economic failure). Yea, i'm an independent and this is how I talk, like someone who is fed up with the takers wanting more and more and more at the expense of those less fortunate. This is the richest damn country on the planet, there is no reason why anyone should be homeless, hungry or uneducated. We are better than this! Independent enough for ya John?

You can't be serious. My god.

Fox News must be so proud of you! At least try and have an intelligent discussion or is that beyond you?

RIGHT ON POINT!!

I don't worry about the average low income person, I worry about the average low intellect person. I worry for you.

100% correct. The Dem Party is a business model - they votes and money in return for giveways through entitlement programs and increased spending that benefit public unions. That is why they are pushing the Dream act and amnesty - more voter who owe them
