But its a different guy? The same guy who crashed his car is dead along with the woman he it so he can't hold the office. Unless you mean Bush, but Bush isn't running for the senate seat despite what AG Coakley says.

Makes me wonder if Obama will still be campaigning against Bush in 2012 and what the polls of that are looking like.

No, he's talking about the Republican party's ideas, which have not changed since Bush left office. The very same ideas that got them run out on a rail are the very same ideas they continue to express now. Re branding them doesn't actually change the ideas.

I don't really see his point. To suggest that the answer to the problem of borrowing and spending too much is to borrow and spend even more is the height of idiocy.

It works both ways

The Republican party is changing, Montegue. It was dead. Now it's not. It didn't get resecutated, it got infused with new life. Scott Brown is no Neo-Con. He's an independant libertarian conservative who happens to be a member of the Republican party. He's not part of an "old boy" network.

If nothing else, it would do you well to know your enemy.

funny, those are the words I would use to describe Elmarnieh - He's an independent libertarian conservative who happens to be a member of the Republican party. He's not part of an "old boy" network.

Scott Brown doesn't have any plans to build a small nuclear reactor does he?

I don't think he'd have to. Now that he's a United States Senator, he could build a big one. :mrgreen:

That's good. We need more nuclear reactors.

I don't have plans to. I don't have 30k to invest in what would be a hobby experiment. It would be cool if I was really rich to tinker with though.
