http://bostonglobe.com/business/2012/07/27/general-dynamics-taunton-plant-spared-budget-cut/GqXBH0X4NaaiauhfhVwsvN/story.htmlI'm happy for the people who don't have to worry about theirs jobs right now. But looking at the affect on the election I think brown just won over or since many in this group already leaned towards him motivated them to hit the streets to support him.

(34,589 posts)Warren will crush him. She hasn't begun to attack, and won't until the fall. When she does, Brown is kaput.

(8,401 posts)My vote will go to the person I think will do a good job And reflect the political values I hold and that is Elizabeth Warren.
And no doubt she can beat him in debates and in any discussion of policy and practical government.
It's hard to compete against getting money, jobs, etc for the voters which even a mediocre, ideologically (backward, wrong, however you put it) US Senator can manage now and then and this is a pretty wide spread and visible thing.
I'll bet this will be in his ads.
