Let's slow down on our condemnation of Scott Brown, shall we ?? Here's why:

GOP's Brown branded turncoat for jobs bill vote

That was the headline yesterday and Midknight Review thinks it is ridiculous. The man has cast three votes, one for the jobs bill and suddenly, he is a Progessive turncoat. Idiocy. Indeed, Brown may wind up being as liberal a Senator as Susan Collins or Olympia Snowe, but we know nothing of his voting trend with three votes - one of which conservatives disapprove. Even Rush Limbaugh argued for caution in making sweeping decisions about Scott Brown based upon this single vote. Understand that only 30 of the 41 Republican Senators voted against the bill. And the bill was a paltry $15 billion. Midknight Review does not support any spending as a result of new legislation. Six Republicans voted for the bill and 5 were nowhere to be found. And ALL Senators have taken advantage of earmark legislation . . . . . all. That being true, we could condemn any number of Republican Senators. So let's stop with the witch hunt and get on with the business of the conservative agenda allowing for differences of opinion along the way -- an angry jds.

Update: this morning, the Senate voted 70 to 28 to pass the so-called "jobs bill." 13 Republicans voted for the final version after the vote yesterday, to cut off debate and bring the bill to the floor for a final vote before the bill goes the House and then into the conference report process. In other words, the bill is a long way from passage into law. Brown has reserved the option to vote against this bill if it comes back from the House ladened with pork.

You must know that the press is busy trying to accentuate any and all divides within the GOP. If Scott Brown can be convinced that the GOP hates him, the media thinks he just might vote for Health Care. Make no mistake, this is part of the unfolding drama surrounding Scott Brown. Conservatives should not play that game.
