senator, that's the kind of thing that i mean. and now he is doing it again. seriously, it is hard not to take this personally. the person who really is running against scott brown for senate is elizabeth warren, the middle class economics expert and so-called sheriff of wall street, who founded the consumer financial protection bureau and thereby did not endear herself to the hedge funds and wall street investment banks who have been scott brown's top supporters. elizabeth warren is running against scott brown, but senator brown has been very reluctant to agree to a debate schedule with her. "the boston globe" reporting that the senator and his staff have refused to meet with elizabeth warren or her campaign to discuss debate invitations or dates or terms for debating. this week, though, scott brown says he would agree to a televised debate with elizabeth warren, but he had conditions. and he said if his conditions weren't met, he wouldn't do it. his conditions are, first, that the widow of senator ted kennedy not make an endorsement in the senate race.
