seventeen days after a statewide election eh?
Well, I'd like to express astonishment at Scott Brown's popularity with the financier class, but honestly is anyone out there surprised to discover that our new Junior Senator is really Wall Street's bitch?
Revelations like this do cut into his bona fides as an independent though.
This does raise questions though, Scott Brown the nominal independent for what? More corporate and financial malfeasance?
Independent of what, common sense?
***
Never forget that money confers two votes on the citizen whose interests dictate that they contribute and contribute lavishly to a particular candidate. However the money vote is always accorded greater respect and deference by today's candidate for office all of whom are taught practically from political infancy to fear and respect the power of capital.
So in today's revelation we can see pretty clearly the very limited scope of Scott Brown's so called "independence", he certainly won't be all that independent of Wall Street's agenda will he?
