NH-Sen: Scott Brown's flirtation

[Joshgreen]

Brown is looking for campaign staff.

If he does do this, he's an idiot. He'll get creamed.

[Joshgreen]

He's announcing an exploratory committee, perhaps as soon as tomorrow.

The Washington press corps is even more excited than when their boy Gillespie challenged a senator of similar vulnerability.

[Joshgreen]

Hassan's coattails will help Shaheen deliver a good thrashing.

[Joshgreen]

If Brown wanted to get back in the Senate this badly, why didn't he just run in the special election against Markey? He would've been the favorite there, but against Shaheen he's a distinct underdog.

It's because Brown isn't particularly smart.

[Joshgreen]

Wow. I genuinely did not at all think that Brown would really go for it. I didn't think he was smarter than this, necessarily, but I did think he was lazier--or, to be charitable, more tired.

I still don't think this'll go that well for him. The primary against Bob Smith, assuming it happens, is going to be glorious.

If he were to lose the primary to Smith, he can always run against Hassan in '16.

Early Primary Prediction

Bob Smith wins the battle of the carpetbaggers 51-48. (Although I still think Smith has residency in Florida...)

LoL, no way. As Sánchez said, Brown will crush Smith in the pimary.

We'll see...
