Scott Brown once again proves he's not the sharpest knife in the drawer

Truck. Good. Mini-Mitt, aka Sen. Scott Brown, has had kind of a head-scratching day. As in, what in the fuck is he thinking? He's still trying to milk the big Romney lie about President Obama and the myth of "you didn't build that," and tie Obama to his opponent, Elizabeth Warren. But he's trying to do that without pissing off voters who might kind of like Obama. And, as usual, he gets all convoluted.

Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.) said Wednesday that President Barack Obama made his 'you didn't build that' comments after getting 'bad advice from professor [Elizabeth] Warren.'
'They're almost verbatim,' Brown said on 'Fox and Friends,' referring to a speech Warren gave last year. 'And the president got bad advice from professor Warren, certainly. You'll never hear me demonizing our job creators.' [...]

But Brown, running in deep-blue Massachusetts, also tried to draw a distinction between Warren and Obama.

'I'm glad the president is stepping back and correcting the record,' Brown said, when asked about Obama's assertion that the Romney camp is taking his remarks out of context. 'But there's none of that with professor Warren. She's actually doubled down and believes we should have more government interference.'

Huh? It's good that the president is correcting the record about what he really said, but what he really said is exactly what Elizabeth Warren said, but when Warren said it it was awful? That makes even less sense than his ad about the issue.

And while we're on things Scott Brown does that make no sense, why vote against both the Republican and Democratic tax bills? Voting against the Republican bill makes some sense, he could then say he really was bipartisan. But voting against a middle-class tax cut? What was he thinking? That by being uber-independent like Joe Lieberman, people might actually like him? Could he really be dumb enough to think that being like Lieberman is a good thing?

Scott Brown is trying to have it both ways, be a Republican while making the voters think he's not really a Republican. Some politicians might have the intelligence and the skill to pull off a maneuver like that one. Brown is proving every day that he is not one of those politicians.
