WAYNE BUCCINI has always been a Democrat, but he hasn’t always been a reliable voter. In 2010, when Scott Brown and Martha Coakley competed in their high-profile special election for Edward Kennedy’s US Senate seat, Buccini sat it out. “I wasn’t even paying attention last time,” he says.
He’s paying attention now. After nearly two difficult years of unemployment, he is following this year’s Senate contest between Brown and Elizabeth Warren, listening for who has the most sound ideas on the economy, tax equity, and the role of government. He says he is leaning toward Warren but remains undecided.

Buccini, do you like looking like a fool in the papers? Grow-up.
Buccini proves that Scotts lies of bipartisanship help him get votes he does not deserve. Scott only votes Democrat when doesn’i count. Scott joined the Senate in January, 2010. In February 2010 he voted for a jobs bill. That is the last jobs bill he voted for. Since then he has voted nay on three jobs bills. Then Scott voted yea on a jobs bill for veterans--but only after McConnell and he counted noses and knew that the Republicans were going to be able to vote it down without Scott’s vote. This allowed Scott to vote yea and claim bipartisanship while still not damaging the Republican agenda. The bill failed thanks to the Republicans.
