Is it just me, or has DC already turned Hot Scott Brown just a little grayer, and a little thinner in the hair department?

BEHOLD: Ayla Brown, daughter of Senator Scott Brown, singing a fabulous rendition of our national anthem.
There are probably a lot of you out there who are going to be all “OMG, Mock – you don’t know who Dana Milbank is?!?!” And yes, I will admit, that until I read an article he wrote today, I’d never heard of him. And it’s a shame, really, because he’s SO RIDICULOUS that I would have been happy to make fun of him long before now. But see – I only started being interested in politics like a year and a half ago, so I have no problem owning my ignorance on all things related to Dana Milbank until today.
ANYWAY.
Dana Milbank wrote an op-ed in the Washington Post, in which he sounds like the brattiest, snottiest toddler on the planet. He’s pouting so much about Scott Brown winning in MA, that he devoted an entire article to complaining about Scott wanting to be sworn in a week ahead of schedule, complaining that Scott was in this huge rush to get to work, and then complaining that after an ENTIRE FEW HOURS on the job, Scott refused to give detailed answers on what he thinks about legislation being debated in Congress.
I’m not making this up. He’s annoyed that Scott was anxious to get to to work, and then simultaneously annoyed that Scott hasn’t gotten to work quickly enough. The entire article is written in this super snippy tone, in which Milbank calls Scott Brown “Senator Centerfold”, and it makes me wonder if Milbank wrote it while sucking his thumb.
The questions that Milbank is annoyed Brown didn’t answer to his satisfaction? Let’s review:
1. How might you work with Democrats? Brown answered, “I need to see what issues are coming up.”
2. What is your stance on gays in the military? Brown said, “I want to speak to the generals in the field.” (Note: he said the same thing in his Barbara Walters interview).
3. What are your thoughts about a filibuster of the labor board nominee? Brown replied, “I’m going to look at everybody’s qualifications.”
4. What are your thoughts about jobs legislation? Brown answered, “I need to see what’s in the bill.”
I don’t know about you guys, but considering the dude’s been on the job for like 4 minutes, I think it’s pretty reasonable that he wants to actually gather DATA AND INFORMATION before just blindly commenting on stuff.
Someone find Dana Milbank’s pacifier. GAWD.
Jon Hamm played Scott Brown on SNL last night, and it was kinda hilarious.
Brown’s reaction? “Thank goodness I like a good laugh,” he told National Review Online. “That was pretty funny. I wish I could host SNL some day. I’ve been watching it since I was young. Jon Hamm is great. He doesn’t really sound like me, but it was very funny.”
Having your head completely up your assular area must be really comfortable, warm and cozy.
GAWD.
This clip is from KO’s show last night, spewing a bunch of absolute delusional, defensive, knee-jerk nonsense. Because, in his crumbling and freaking-out-beyond-recognition mind at this point, the fact that Scott Brown won this election has nothing to do with policy, you guys. It has EVERYTHING to do with race, of course.
Because of COURSE it does.
Liberal playbook page one. It doesn’t get any more predictable than this.
I realize I’m nobody with respect to being able to officially call an election, but with 65% of the vote in at the time I’m writing this, I feel safe in saying that Scott Brown kicked the crap out of Martha Coakley tonight.
It’s a beautiful day, COTR readers. We, the American People With Actual Brains, are finally being heard.
GO BROWN!!!

This video of Keith Olbermann throwing a tantrum and acting like a bratty little girl over Scott Brown’s growing popularity TOTALLY gave me the glees. I mean, he’s just so bitter and angry, that I wouldn’t have been at all surprised if he’d have closed out his segment by crying and threatening to take all of his toys home.
Poor Keith.
I think he’s mostly jealous about the nude photo spread.
You know you’re desperate when you start having people in your party act like someone else and make phony phone calls to voters.
Gateway Pundit reported on a story this morning about the Massachusetts Citizens For Life group - specifically a post on their blog that is telling people to beware of these phony phone calls.
This group of posers is apparently calling people in Massachusetts, saying that they DON’T support Scott Brown because of health care. But the REAL group is actually supporting Brown because of his stance on healthcare, and they say this on their blog:
These deceitful calls are coming from 202-461-3441, a Washington, DC number. The phone company says this is a company called SOOH. Pro-lifers are not the only victims of this scam. Our MCFL sleuths have found that this same number is calling people across the state claiming to be different groups with different messages – all anti-Brown!
Holy DESPERATE.
Way to run an honest race, people. Classy.
I love this video. And, I can’t wait to see what happens tomorrow.
My vote is for liberty over tyranny…and as for underestimating the American people? Very, very stupid…
Ok – now I’m starting to think that they just WANT Martha Coakley to lose. Because you can’t have this many missteps on accident, can you? I mean, is this REALLY how stupid they are?
According to this, the Massachusetts Democratic party swiped the branding of UPS to mail out pamphlets attacking Hot Scott Brown. BEHOLD:
This is apparently the extent of the Massachusetts Democratic Party’s creativity.
And here’s the best part. UPS is pissed. As well they should be. They demanded yesterday that the party immediately stop distributing the mailers. As of yesterday evening, they’d received no response, and no one at the Democratic HQ in Mass had responded to the Boston Herald’s inquiries.
And according to this, the Brown campaign isn’t going to take this lying down either. They are filing a criminal complaint against the Massachusetts Democratic Party.
Meanwhile, Brown leads Coakley 58-42 in absentee ballots, with one out of every five Democrats voting for Hot Scott.
This is shaping up to be the most hilarious election ever.
According to this, Bill Clinton went to Massachusetts to try and breathe some life into Martha Coakley’s campaign before Obama shows up and either helps or totally extinguishes any chance she had at all to win. The jury’s still out.
Anyway, Bill had an audience of around 1500 folks, and used his speaking time to give the Tea Party movement even more momentum than they already had. Only he didn’t do that on purpose.
He said, “There is a mass national effort to discourage progressive independents from voting and to discourage disappointed liberals from voting.”
Say whaaa? Could someone please explain to me what in the holy hell that even means? What effort has there been to discourage ANYONE from voting? Have you guys seen any “Hey – don’t vote!” ads on TV? I don’t get that at all. He went on, “I came here to tell the people of Massachusetts this: This country’s revolution was born in Massachusetts. The Revolutionary War was first won here. The war was over here years before it was finally finished. It started with the Boston Tea Party, and the right wing Republicans have appropriated that on the premise the tea party was against government. What they were against was abuse of power.”
See, that’s not exactly right, Bill. The Tea Party folks are for LIMITED GOVERNMENT INTRUSION into the lives of Americans. We’re not against government altogether. But you’re spot on about the whole “against abuse of power” thing. We’re definitely all about that, which is precisely why Hot Scott Brown is gaining popularity. He’s trying to block a vote that is a TOTAL abuse of power.
Wow. I really gave Bill too much credit for being savvy enough to figure that out on his own.
