Rachel Maddow got what she billed as the first national interview with Senate candidate Elizabeth Warren last night. She led up to Warren with a recap of Senator Scott Brown's recent activities. Basically, she labeled Brown as having a week grasp of issues and being a top receiver of Wall Street campaign cash. Maddow painting Brown in a negative light isn't a huge surprise. Her blog is loaded with Brown-centered links.

Senator Scott Brown isn't afraid of Elizabeth Warren. At least we don't think so. The folks at TheNewCivilRightsMovement.com exist and think Brown fears that smart women like Warren or Rachel Maddow, or Martha Coakley are out to get him. Okay, not Coakley. The blog in question never said "fear" or "afraid." They said "nervous" and asked if smart women are "out to get him."
Now that health care is go, Scott Brown is bored. So bored that he's inventing fake threats to his fake future candidacy for senate!

The rainbow-colored umbrage taken over Rick Warren's appearance at Obama's inauguration was starting to die down—until today, when the New York Times' Frank Rich (he of the previously Obama-adoring columns) came down hard on Obama's seeming naivete over this decision, and Obama spokesman David Axlerod appeared on Meet the Press to discuss it with David Gregory, the new host of the venerable political program. This high-profile coverage of what many liberals see as Obama's first major blunder effectively ripped the scab from the wound left by the passing of Prop 8 and Warren's much-publicized comments comparing gay marriage to pedophilia and polygamy. After the jump, we give you a total of eight aspects of an issue which has touched the life of many a Mass. activist. If you're a real politics junkie, you can spend your New Year's Eve figuring out many more.
