"Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.) leads a range of possible Republican challengers to her 2014 bid for reelection, but former Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.) comes closest, according to a poll released Tuesday by the Democratic firm Public Policy Polling."
I don't mind that Scott Brown didn't vote the party line. I think that there should be more RINOS and DINOS in politics. We need middle of the road politicians. What is hurting America today is politics being so polarized. And he was a junior senator, so of course he didn't have the political weight to do anything significant, and politics is run on compromises and doing favours for others. And anyone thinks that it can be run any differently is completely naive to the process. Clearly every legislation is going to make a whole bunch of the electorate unhappy, so it's all about compromises here and there.
Again, Shaheen always voting the party line is much worse than a RINO. And I don't want a Republican senator always voting the party line either. There is no perfect political party. However, the democrats have no concept of budgeting and are spending us into oblivion.

No we don't, we need SMALL GOVERNMENT politicians. Both parties are spending and expanding government at unprecedented levels.

So you want a Tea Party senator? Anyway, NH is a purple state, so our politicians should be RINOs and DINOs who have our best interests at heart. Otherwise, for a start, we need to examine how our property taxes are being spent. That concerns me much more than the federal taxes taken out of my paycheck. Personally I would like to see parents of school age children pay more than non-breeders towards the public school systems. If we are trending towards car owners paying for their use of the roads, then parents need to pay more towards the use of our school systems. I am all about fairness. If you use it, then you pay for it.
I was so in love with him (and so was my husband) when we lived in MA when he was running the first time and won. Well............ he went to DC in his truck and started flip flopping so much, that our love affair was over very quickly
