    I know that Massachusetts is Liberal Democrat territory, but a very important election is coming up due to the death of Senator Ted Kennedy.  There is an opportunity here to put conservative Scott Brown (R) in that seat.  I haven't heard much in the news about this election which suprises me.  The Kennedy-Kerry liberal tagteam has been an entrenched force in the U.S. Senate and the Democratic candidates promise more "Progressive Big Government Thinking".  We can't give up on liberal states like MA and CA.  This could be huge for true Conservatives.

Scott Brown is a typical Republican, and nothing close to anyone that an informed JBS member should support.

Luckily, there is a candidate who supports getting rid of the Federal Reserve, and ending collectivism in the USA: Joe Kennedy (no relation to Ted). See for yourself at http://www.joekennedyforsenate.com

Scott Brown, on the other hand
1) Said he would refuse to debate Martha Coakley if Joe Kennedy was included in the debate.  So I guess Martha is more in favor of open elections than Brown is (and it is her staff that followed the liberal interpretation used to invalidate petition signatures on the measure to reduce the state sales tax.  So much for either mainslime candidate caring about the will of the people.)
2) Scott Brown went on record opposing MA prop 1, which would have lowered the state income tax.  How the hell does a "conservative" boldly go on record opposing tax cuts as "irresponsible"??!!!
3) Scott Brown favors the Iraq and Afghanistan foreign military occupations (But of course, he's not over there, fighting.)  War is the worst of collectivism.  I'm not sure how many people here are familiar with G. Edward Griffin's works, but if you are, then you know that there is no reason for us to REMAIN in Afghanistan or Iraq.  The purpose of our military should be to use force, briefly, when all other options have been exhausted.  After every such use of force, our boys should promptly return home when they have killed and humiliated the enemy.

Scott Brown is typical RINO slime.  He cares nothing for the Constitution.  He should not be allowed to advance in rank.

JBS members should vote for Joe Kennedy.  Unlike a Republican in MA, an Independent actually has a chance.

Let's make the most of it, like the folks in MI did a few years ago with Jesse Ventura.  If we say "third parties can't win" then we create a pathetic and self-fulfilling prophecy of cowardice.

Joe is a free market voice who would make a strong and independent representative in the US Senate.  He endorses Ron Paul's "Free Competition in Currency Act" here:

Yeah Hi, Joe Kennedy wasn't in the race when I wrote this. Take a deep breath.  I don't know if you're from MA, but Scott Brown would be a HUGE upgrade from what we have for options in this state.  I agree, Brown is not an ideal conservative candidate based on his voting record but he is my best chance at someone that isn't a socialist.  Maybe JBS should have taken a stronger and more public stance on Joe Kennedy and then maybe he wouldn't be a complete unknown.  If Brown gets elected, he is a guarenteed nay vote on some of the garbage legislation working it's way through Congess at the moment.   For some reason the NY 23 special election got plenty of play, yet this special election gets none.  Kennedy would be my ideal choice, but he should have made himself relevant earlier in the race.  That would be a wasted vote and I can't stomach Coakley taking that spot. The election is 22 days away and 90% of the MA population has never heard of Kennedy.  HE HAS NO CHANCE.  If you lived here you would be exhausted from the liberal, progressive, communist, whetever you want to call the politics in this state and you too would be excited about the mediocre candidacy of Scott Brown, so.....sometimes the idealistic high horse your on isn't always the best choice.   Scott Brown for Senate.... Thanks for thinking this one through.
