LOWELL - Elizabeth Warren proved she was a champion debater in high school.

Elizabeth Warren
She reiterated it last night, when she clearly was the most adept in the first debate among the six candidates vying for the Massachusetts Democratic Party’s 2012 US Senate nomination.

Scott Brown quips about Elizabeth Warren’s appearance on Boston radio show

Her comment on Scott Brown's modeling nude during his college years was meant to be lightly taken. Just as much as his retort that he's glad that Warren didn't do the same in her college days.

Not concerned with Scott Brown's reply. Seems relatively harmless but his "woe is me" and his retelling financial difficulty going through school ad nauseum makes him seem like his a tad too thinned skinned.

Even Parody-Elizabeth-Warren has better ideas than the Republicans:

"You built a factory out there. Good for you! But you don't have to be such a dick about it."

@joefromchicago,

I couldn't watch the video here at work but they just played the audio of this video on the radio. This parody Elizabeth Warren would definitely get my vote!

I want my revenge voucher NOW!

@tsarstepan,

Scott Brown ran as a Conservative Republican and we all know he is anything but Conservative however YES he can and will beat Elizabeth Warren. She's just another radical and typical Progressive Liberal Loon. Its the last thing America needs.

@tsarstepan,

Why would you vote for a Progressive Liberal Loon?

I'm thinking the best thing to do is keep the few moderate Republicans we have right where they are.

That's what I said about Alan Specter when Pennsylvania Democrats nominated Pat Toomey over him. Back then, joefromchicago countered (and I paraphrase) that keeping moderate conservatives in the Senate is the Republicans' job, not the Democrats'. On reflection, I think he was right.

I don't know if Elizabeth Warren could beat Scott Brown. But I do wish her luck in trying.

I don't think Elizabeth Warren should run for senate. I think she should run for president.

I must protest. She should run for vice president on Nancy Pelosi's ticket. Further proof that you and I will never agree on anything political.

Because this is the United States of America, where only alleged loons protect consumers against predatory banks. On a tangent to this, welcome to able2know, Jaisee!

When Pelosi comes out in favor of revenge vouchers, then I'll consider a Pelosi-Warren ticket.

A great AND critical article on Warren in the New York Magazine couple of weeks ago:
A Saint With Sharp Elbows
In her race for Ted Kennedy’s old Senate seat, is Elizabeth Warren running against Scott Brown and Obama?

Democrats try to put Scott Brown on defensive with new ethics charge

Each respective sides' charges are a tad fluffy in their useless goofiness.
Warren's alleged Native Americanhood and Scott's 19 second video.

The nonpartisan Cook Political Report lists seven Democratic-held seats and three Republican-held seats as tossups. In two of the three Republican-held seats, the challengers have an excellent chance at winning: In Massachusetts, Democrat Elizabeth Warren can beat Sen. Scott Brown (R), who, despite his popularity, is playing on Democratic turf to hold onto the late Sen. Edward Kennedy’s old seat.
