This starts really really soon, you shouldn’t miss it, and you can watch here.

Each and every day that I’ve been a United States senator, I’ve been discussing issues … in secret meetings with kings and queens and prime ministers and business leaders and military leaders talking voting working on issues every single day.
Sen. Scott Brown (R-MA) says he holds daily secret meetings with kings and queens. Favorite part: A spokesman “did not immediately respond to clarify the remarks.” (via think-progress)

No, Mitt, corporations are not people. People love, laugh, they have children, families, they breathe, they live, they get sick, they die… People are people, Mitt. Learn the difference.

You built a factory out there? Good for you. But I want to be clear. You moved your goods to market on the roads the rest of us paid for. You hired workers the rest of us paid to educate. You were safe in your factory because of police-forces and fire-forces that the rest of us paid for. You didn’t have to worry that marauding bands would come and seize everything at your factory — and hire someone to protect against this — because of the work the rest of us did
Send Elizabeth Warren a “thank you” note. Thank her for standing up for progressive values, and for showing other Democrats how to fight.

Massachusetts GOP Urges Harvard Not To Pay Elizabeth Warren’s Salary
Popular consumer advocate Elizabeth Warren has been a favorite target of Republican lawmakers since she built President Obama’s Consumer Financial Protection Bureau from the ground up. For two years, they stymied her bid to lead the agency she created. Since Warren announced her intention to challenge Sen. Scott Brown (R-MA) in the 2012 election, Republicans have sought to paint her as an Ivy League elitist for teaching at Harvard Law School. Now the Massachusetts GOP is trying another tactic altogether — directly lobbying Harvard not to pay Warren’s salary while she is running for the Senate

MA-Sen: Elizabeth Warren takes the lead!
Elizabeth Warren: 46 (32)
Scott Brown (R-inc): 44 (47)
Undecided: (21)
(MoE: 3.5 ±%)
Elizabeth Warren has clearly had an extremely successful launch of her campaign. Her favorability rating in Massachusetts has risen from 21 percent favorable/17 percent unfavorable in June to 40 percent favorable/22 percent unfavorable now. Further, she is way, way ahead in the Democratic primary.
Warren is also getting a boost from changing views of Scott Brown among Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents. In June, his favorability rating among Obama voters was 35 percent favorable/48 percent unfavorable. Now, it has dropped to just 27 percent favorable/62 percent unfavorable.
Massachusetts Democratic voters are moving toward Warren, and away from Brown. In this heavily blue state, that is enough to suddenly make this an extremely competitive campaign.
This could very well be the biggest Senate campaign in 2012—possibly even the campaign on which control of the Senate hinges.
Please, contribute to Elizabeth Warren on Orange to Blue.
