Highly Scientific Study Suggests Scott Brown Supporters Not Actually in Massachusetts

It seems that Scott Brown is pushing beyond his base in more ways than one. Not only is he looking for independent voters, he also seems to have a predominance of support from outside the state of Massachusetts. You know, from people who can't vote for him, and whom he wouldn't represent. We just conducted a highly scientific study (that's sarcasm, folks) that analyzed random #MAsen tweets in support of Scott Brown. Here are where the 20 Scott Brown Twitter supporters we clicked on (claim they) live:

Massachusetts (4)
Pennsylvania (4)
Texas (3)
Virginia
Tennessee
Georgia
Florida
Kansas
"Midwest"
California
Iran
Australia

Note: This doesn't include at least half a dozen folks who live in the "USA" or refuse to disclose their location.

So when Scott Brown says this is "the people's seat," does he mean the people of Massachusetts? Or his vocal supporters from other states? It seems he's become "unfamiliar" with his Tea Party friends in this state.

  • Those of us (ok, me) in Mass. who follow such things think conservatives and libertarians not from here should sit our election out since you can't vote. Liberals, too. Campaign cash should only come from Mass., too.

    Y'all up there in Boston should be grateful that people who are not living in New England are helping to guide your political process in a healthy direction. Normally, we conservatives and libertarians don't really care what y'all do up there (it's your lives !). But in this case, Brown could be of critical aid to the rest of the USA, so we ( the majority of Americans) need to step in.

    You're welcome !
