Rachel Maddow for US Senate? (alternate title: “Walshgate” Update)

By

Last night Rachel Maddow reported on her program that Scott Brown has sent one of those scary fundraising letters saying that she has been approached to run for Senate in 2012.  He alleges that the accidently public tweet of John Walsh discussed here several days ago was meant for her.  She “recused” herself from hosting the segment and moved to the guest chair and had her producer interview her.  She denies receiving the tweet or any other encouraging communication from the state party, as well as any interest in jumping into that race.  Too bad – at least it would have the benefit of giving our friend JohnD a fit:)

  1. Friends,

    It’s only been a couple of months since I’ve been in office, and before I’ve even settled into my new job, the political machine in Massachusetts is looking for someone to run against me. And you’re not going to believe who they are supposedly trying to recruit  — liberal MSNBC anchor Rachel Maddow.

    Rachel lives in western Massachusetts, and recently it was reported that the chairman of the state Democratic Party had apparently tried to reach out to her in an attempt to coax her into a race against me. You can read about it here.

    The political season  never ends, which is why I need your continued support. While my opponents strategize on how to defeat me in 2012, I’m going to continue to speak out against higher taxes, more spending and greater government control in our lives.

    I relish being an independent voice in Washington, one that doesn’t march in lockstep with the rest of the Washington crowd. The Democratic Party bosses in Massachusetts disagree. They want a rubberstamp who will vote for their plans to expand government, increase debt and raise taxes. Someone like Rachel Maddow. I’m sure she’s a nice person — I just don’t think America can afford her liberal politics.

    Rachel Maddow has a nightly platform to push her far-left agenda. What about you? I’d like to encourage ordinary American citizens concerned about the future of their country to get more involved in our government. I hope you were encouraged by my victory to become more politically active, maybe even become a candidate for office yourself. We can continue to push our movement forward by running for office, joining in rallies and petitions that challenge President Obama and Nancy Pelosi’s healthcare legislation, supporting campaigns against the tax-and-spenders or by donating time and money to office-holders and candidates who will restore the principles of our founders.

    I’m grateful you are with me. Thanks again for whatever support you can provide me, and I look forward to joining in further victories with you down the line.

    Sincerely,

    Scott Brown
    United States Senator

  3. Believing “obscure” and unsubstantiated local blog posts are appropriate sources for written communication befitting a United States Senator is par for the course with Brown.  He is, in the words of one of his former colleagues in the state senate, “a rube.”

    p>His erratic behavior since landing in Washington, his mixed messages regarding policy and philosophy, and his inability to establish a functional senate office all speak to the notion that Mr. Brown is way in over his head.  He is embarrassing, but I’m hoping his antics will continue, unabated, until 2012.
