(And it really is amazing how much Jon Hamm looks like Brown in this sketch.)

Who is Scott Brown?
Bookworm on Jan 20 2010 | Filed under: Uncategorized
What little we’ve seen of Scott Brown so far we like. Joshuapundit adds two more things to the equation: he’s no RINO and he’s a friend of Israel. Also, if you go here, you get a great video about the Brown win, plus a comprehensive round-up of posts about the election’s impact (and, since praise [...]
Why Scott Brown’s election is so inordinately important *UPDATED*
Bookworm on Jan 20 2010 | Filed under: Elections
Thinking about it, Scott Brown’s election as the Senator for Massachusetts may be more significant than any election in my lifetime, including the Reagan Revolution and the 1994 Congressional takeover. I know this sounds silly. In 1980, the political shift involved a President, not a mere Senator; in 1994, it was an entire Congress, not [...]
Aaah! I can’t take the tension of this election *UPDATED*
Bookworm on Jan 19 2010 | Filed under: Open Threads
I keep compulsively flipping between Drudge, which is updating about every ten minutes with numbers, and Hot Air, which is giving trends. The numbers are great, the trends are disturbing. The tension between the two is killing me. I can’t even imagine how Brown feels (and I don’t care how Coakley feels). I would characterize [...]
What’s amazing is how bewildered Obama looks . . .
Bookworm on Jan 17 2010 | Filed under: Barack Obama, Elections
. . . as he’s heckled (h/t Sadie): I don’t think that’s ever happened to him before. What must also have bewildered him was the skimpy turnout, a stark contrast to Scott Brown’s rally today.
Dems try to slam Brown for hinting that Obama was born out of wedlock
Bookworm on Jan 17 2010 | Filed under: Barack Obama
The Dems have launched a new attack against Brown, in order to cause voters to react in Pavlovian revulsion when they hear his name: They’re now contending that (a) Brown thinks Sarah Palin is a decent human being and (b) Brown indicated skepticism about the fact that Barack Obama’s mother was married to his father, [...]
The Massachusetts Miracle

A little over the top (especially music-wise), but still worth watching, if only as a reminder the a small pebble can divert a flood: Hat tip: Lulu
The ultimate Democratic anti-Brown ad *UPDATED*
Bookworm on Jan 16 2010 | Filed under: Elections
It’s only because it’s just a wee bit more over the top than the real things that you can tell it’s satire: Big hat tip to The New Editor UPDATE: The above video represents fake Democrats (read: “Republican satirists”) in action. Nothing, of course, can compare to the real deal, who are so over-the-top that [...]
Liberal fear; conservative resurgence
Bookworm on Jan 16 2010 | Filed under: Elections
Vanderleun, who blogs at the wonderful American Digest, put me on to a liberal Massachusetts blog that tells its readers to suck it up and vote for Coakley: Let’s get this out of the way. You might not want to vote for Martha Coakley. You might think she deserves what’s she’s getting after an absentee, [...]
Does Obama trip to Massachusetts presage Coakley’s failure?
Bookworm on Jan 15 2010 | Filed under: Barack Obama
The last and best word on the subject is that Obama is going to Massachusetts to bring his prestige to bear on the upcoming Massachusetts Senatorial election. You can hear Coakley confirm this, even as she makes the stunning statement — stunning considering that she’s hoping to represent Massachusetts in the United States Senate — [...]
“It’s the People’s seat”
Bookworm on Jan 12 2010 | Filed under: Government
You’ve already seen this video at a million internet sites, but I want it on mine too. I think Scott Brown made a statement that transcends Massachusett’s politics and should remind each and every American that we are a government “by the People,” not by the politicians: As you’ve read, Scott Brown is raking in [...]
Both Progressives and Conservatives should vote for Scott Brown
Bookworm on Jan 10 2010 | Filed under: Congress
First, here is Scott Brown’s latest ad: Second, not only should conservatives and independents in Massachusetts vote for him, but so should progressives. After all, the latter hate the proposed health care bill as much as the former do. Conservatives and independents hate the bill because it vests power in the government; progressives hate it [...]
Democrats: doing what it takes to create a one party system
Bookworm on Jan 09 2010 | Filed under: Congress, Corruption
I’ve got a matched set of posts for you today. The first is an American Thinker article by John Gaski, in which he advances the argument that the Democrats are tuning out the American voters, not because they are blinded by ideology, but because they have a well-advanced system in place for permanent one party [...]
Senate candidate Scott Brown (R) reminds us how far Democrats have drifted from JFK *UPDATED*
Bookworm on Jan 05 2010 | Filed under: Congress
Good ad: Massachusetts has drowned itself in the Kool-Aid since 1972, but maybe a strong Republican candidate, a strong message, and an insane Democratic party can make the difference. UPDATE: If you’d like to contribute to Brown’s campaign, here’s his website. As Kate said in the comments when she provided the link, the Dems are [...]
