Republican Scott Brown is ducking the highest-profile TV debates.  It’s a perfectly valid question to ask why he won’t defend his record to the people of Massachusetts in these high-profile forums.

  1. That Brown accepted and attended a debate sponsored by the EMK Institute and was OK with Kennedy endorsing Coakley back then. The only thing that seems to have changed is that Brown is an incumbent and doesn’t want to actually talk about his record. Not here, not at town halls, not anywhere.

    • His record is in step with the 13 percent of the electorate that are Republicans, and vastly out of step with the 87 percent of Massachusetts voters who are not. His behavior isn’t weird, it is typical of a second-generation professional politician who knows how the game of insider baseball is played.

  2. task for his pre-debating skills:

    Maddow first noted that Brown once claimed she was running against him in Massachusetts and used the her fake candidacy to raise money.

    “I was never running against Scott Brown for anything ever, but he didn’t care,” she said. “He just made that up, raised money off it, and never took it back. Even after I ran a full page ad in the Boston paper saying he was lying and that I was not running against him, he still kept saying it.”

    “MSNBC was never going to be the host of the debate, MSNBC never even got asked about hosting the debate,” Maddow mockingly said. “But Senator Scott Brown demands MSNBC be removed as the host of this debate.”

    and

    “Are other senators like this?” she wondered. “Is anyone else besides us at MSNBC having to deal with a sitting U.S. senator constantly making stuff up about their hosts running campaigns against him?”
