Warren, easily, but Ted Kennedy was pretty great as well, and I have a soft spot for Mo Cowan, as short as his tenure was.

[SATW]

Tsongas

[Attorney General, LGC Speaker, and Former PPT Dwarven Dragon]

Scott Brown, of course.

[🦀🎂🦀🎂]

Probably Warren. Kerry is a dullard, his replacement is a , Kennedy was a lying murderer, republicans are always awful (normal), Tsongas was a Moderate Hero and the other two were appointees.

[Oldiesfreak1854]

Brooke, with Saltonstall and Brown close behind.

Ted Kennedy deserves credit, though, for his longevity and active leadership.

[NewYorkExpress]

Still Ted Kennedy

[Dr. Cynic]

Has to be Tedward.

[RINO Tom]

Definitely Brooke.

[RogueBeaver]

Tsongas.

[RFayette]

Definitely Brooke.

[FEMA Camp Administrator]

Tsongas, obvi.

[H. Ross Peron]

Warren, with honourable mentions to Kerry and Brooke. Not voting for a murderer.

[Blair]

How can people vote for Warren over Kennedy?

He abolished the poll tax, kept us out of Vietnam after 1970, was a voice for progressive politics globally, fought for universal healthcare, got HIV/AIDs funding in the 1980s when it was major, introduced disability legislation, increased the minimum wage and arguably helped Obama win in 2008. The man was a liberal lion, in the sense that no-one has achieved that much in the Senate.

What's Warren done? Yeah she's good at raising issues and getting us all talking about them but she doesn't hold a candle to ted

[Maxwell]

Scott Brown, though Tsongas is good.

One word: Chappaquiddick.

That's why liberals are voting for Warren, even though Kennedy is the most accomplished of the group by far. A lot of people really can't stomach his actions.
