In The Tank With The DC Establishment,
Ayotte Sinks As She Endorses Brown

Washington-Aquarium-Kelly
I get party loyalty, I especially get the Senate code (which is suspiciously like Omerta), whereby one sitting Senator will never attack another of the same party (unless it is the Establishment attacking its TEA party members).

What I don’t get is blind loyalty to a FAILED Senator, one who could not even beat LieAwatha in MA, where his moderate views and penchant for gun control fit right in, instead of holding your powder dry until the primary, and then jumping on board with the choice of the people – you know – the ones you claim to represent!

GrokHQ received notification that Ayotte plans to endorse Scott Brown, tomorrow, for the race against Shaheen, even as a significant part of her base makes it very clear that NOT Brown is their choice. Perhaps these things are not apparent when viewed from inside the murky Washington Aquarium, but around here, it is crystal clear that being in the tank for a failed senator is likely to sink Ayotte’s own reputation more than it will help Brown.

what-can-brown-do-rights2We are healthily suspicious of a candidate who gives at best tangential answers to questions, who won’t allow recording except by his own staff, and who supported an ill-defined “assault weapons ban” to make the USA more like Massachusetts. Add in the destruction of economic liberty courtesy of Dodd-Frank, and we are quite entitled to ask:
“What will Brown do to our rights?”, and “What is Kelly thinking to endorse Brown at this point?” Could he be in need of a boost?

jeff chidesterLet me also quote the wisdom of Jeff Chidester, who noted on Satuurday that the State GOP should not be wasting its time on trying to sell Brown to a reluctant base, but should be concentrating its efforts on the Governor’s race and the Executive Council, where the right people can do a lot to resist the encroachment by statists upon our freedoms.

Footnote – you can watch the endorsement, at:
Tuesday, May 27th, 2:30 PM
Norton’s Classic Café (233 Main Street, Nashua)
