Re: The Hypocrisy of the Brown 2012 bandwagon
Havent read the whole thread but whoever is touting Brown for the GOP ticket in 2012 is wrong headed. We know very little about this guy. I like what I heard when he said he is in favor of funding for the weapons that will defeat the terrorists but opposed to funding the lawyers who will defend them in court. I like that he opposes the healthcare plan. I like that he is for lower taxes and more responsible fiscal policies. I dont like it that hes pro-abortion, pro-gay marriage. I wouldnt vote for him for president if he ran.
It is hypocritical if someone has been name calling those who vote Democrat because of abortion and then celebrates this victory in Mass. But many of us do not call such voters those names, and the hypocrite label in this case doesnt stick to most of us.
I think the GOP needs to think long and hard about their candidates for 2012. BO will still be a formidable candidate then even if he and his administration continue to overreach and go overkill on an extreme liberal agenda. My suspicion is that they will and they will lose, unless of course the GOP nominates a moderate candidate trying to appeal to the political center. Democrats have to move to the center to win presidential elections. Republicans lose when they move to the center. If the GOP nominates a true conservative, they should have no problem beating BO in 2012.
Scott Brown wont be on the ticket.
