Whew! My head is spinning reading all the criticism flying at Scott Brown … a reject from the one-party state of Massachusetts? Hardly, more like a rejection of fresh air. Scott Brown offers New Hampshire voters a chance to reject president Obama’s failed policies – both domestically and in foreign affairs – by not re-electing Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, who votes with the president 99 percent of the time. She supports a president and an administration that has lied to us and continues to do so under the guise of looking out for people. Tell that to the unemployed as the president blathers about the jobs he has created while his policies keep businesses from expanding and creating more jobs. Sen. Shaheen says she is for creating more jobs, but in reality she votes with the president’s policies that obstruct job creation. Do we want more of this? That’s what we’ll get if she is re-elected.

There are several hundred bills passed by Republicans in the House that are sitting on Sen. Harry Reid’s desk, waiting to be discussed and brought to a vote. He won’t do it. Dereliction of duty? You decide. Where is Sen. Shaheen on this?

Scott Brown is a moderate Republican who analyzes and thinks about what the issues are. Voters have an opportunity to send a message to Washington that we reject the lies and lack of transparency. Instead, we can send a promising leader to the U.S. Senate, not an Obama follower like Jeanne Shaheen.
