Scott Brown surges to within 2 points of Dem Senator



The Coming GOP Landslide
  • The Republican platform is basically "We are not Obama."  It is not like the GOP actually believes in anything.  But "not Obama" will do at this point.


A new poll shows that Republican Scott Brown has closed a wide gap to make it a possible neck-and-neck race against Democratic Sen. Jeanne Shaheen in New Hampshire.


The WMUR poll found Shaheen leading by 2 points in a match-up with Brown, who last month trailed by 12 points in the same poll.

Shaheen’s current 2-point advantage in within the margin of error, which was released Thursday.

“I feel very good because when I’m going out and about into people’s business, holding town halls — town halls are an important thing — and conveying my thoughts about being an independent voice for New Hampshire, it’s resonating,” Brown told WMUR.

Brown, a former U.S. senator from Massachusetts, moved to New Hampshire last December after losing his seat to Democrat Elizabeth Warren.

New Hampshire leans Democratic and Brown has been considered an underdog in the race. He got a boost from an endorsement last month from 2012 Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney, who was governor of neighboring Massachusetts and has a summer home in New Hampshire.
