Scott Brown web ad targets President Obama, Elizabeth Warren business comments

With a new campaign video, Senator Scott Brown of Massachusetts is hoping to use Elizabeth Warren’s viral video about the role of government in fostering business - the one that helped make her a star on the left - to paint her as an enemy of American free enterprise.

The Brown campaign’s video, “Let America Be America,” released this morning, links Warren’s comments that “There is nobody in this country who got rich on his own,” with similar comments later made by Obama that “If you’ve been successful, you didn’t get there on your own.”
