And when Obama was first mentioned as a presidential hopeful, he'd served as a US Senator for a couple of years and most people (yours tuly included) thought the notion that so raw a politician was viable was absurd.

@roger,
Brown has been a state senator in MA since 2004. He's in his third term.
No, I think you were actually right. LOL. (I'm wrong...a lot).

Scott Brown to become Faux News contributor
Former US Senator Scott Brown is becoming a contributor on Fox News, making his debut
tonight on Hannity at 9 p.m., Fox confirmed today in a press release.
Bill Shine, executive vice president of programming for the network, said Brown will offer
political commentary on various programs during the day and in primetime.
“Senator Brown’s dedication to out-of-the box thinking on key issues makes him an
important voice in the country and we are looking forward to his contributions across all
FOX News platforms,” Shine said in the statement.
Of his role, Brown said in the statement: “I am looking forward to commenting on the issues
of the day and challenging our elected officials to put our country’s needs first instead of
their own partisan interests.”
Brown, a Republican who stunned the political establishment when he won the 2010 special
election to replace the late US Senator Edward M. Kennedy, lost reelection in November to
Democrat Elizabeth Warren.
He recently passed up an opportunity to run in the special election to fill the seat being
vacated by John F. Kerry, who has become secretary of state.
