TAMPA — Senator Scott Brown, making a cameo appearance at the Republican National Convention on Thursday, said he was asked to play a bigger role at the gathering but limited his attendance to a single day because of scheduling demands — and not out of concern the convention’s conservative tone would hurt his own intense reelection fight.
“Obviously, me being here is important in that, you know, it shows that someone who’s a prochoice moderate Republican is here as part of the big tent that we have, and should have, and will continue to have with my involvement here,” he told reporters. “And while I don’t agree with everything in the platform and/or with Governor Romney, I have a lot of respect for him, and vice versa.”

liar, liar, pants on fire. Scott Brown managed, through inactivity, to become part of the biggest political drag show in decades in Tampa. A party of right wing zealots, Gold Standard dead-enders and unbridled imperialists dressed up as equal opportunity modern Federalists. nice try, Scott.
Regardless of Brown's self-proclaimed moderate stance on a couple of issues, he's still a cog in the republican machine and he's still the guy (if my memory serves me) who took such glee in the possibility that upon his election, he would be the deciding vote to kill Obama's signature health care legislation. We don't need this guy. If the party was more moderate at the national level then I could possibly see the logic in having split senatorial representation but with the way things are today, no way.
Hey Scott I hear that a few Kings and Queens are waiting to talk with you. That is if your not too busy with all the other stuff going on in your life.
