Exclusive: Scott Brown plans memoir


By MIKE ALLEN | 2/10/10 9:06 AM EST


The man with the truck will soon be the man with a book.

Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.), the party's hottest elected official, has decided to write a book that combines memoir and inspiration.

Gail Gitcho, his new Senate communications director, tells POLITICO: “Senator Brown is honored and humbled to be approached by many people who want him to tell his inspirational personal story about his life leading up to his election as a United State Senator from Massachusetts. He will tell his story in a book in hopes of providing insight and encouragement to others and also to ensure that the record is complete and accurate.

"Part of the book proceeds will be donated to charity," Gitcho continued. "Senator Brown will work with a collaborator so he can continue to focus fully on his service to the people of Massachusetts, which is, and always will be, his first priority.”

Brown has hired Robert Barnett of Williams & Connolly, who is the city's leading counsel to politician-authors, to help him through the process.

and don't think he doesn't stand a chance at the nomination because he's purportedly pro-choice. It wouldn't shock me to see a Ken and Barbie ticket.

1. Poor Sarah.

I pity the fool who crosses HER today.

[MannyGoldstein]

2. Please God, Let It Be So!

Extra points for a Palin/Brown ticket!

[bdamomma]

13. oh what a nightmare ticket that would be.

3. He's qualified.

republicans have low standards.

7. So do we nt

[O is 44]

19. Speak for yourself because I don't n/t

[AllentownJake]

4. Almost every Governor and Senator below the age of 65

Is always contemplating running for President and taking steps towards that goal.

[Jennicut]

18. Exactly. Which just leaves me totally bored with all of them.

[spanone]

5. enough about me, let's talk about you....what do you think about me?

[bigtree]

6. he does seem like Palin's twin

I think he's just as limited by his own stupidity as Palin. These folks only serve to marginalize, and in some cases, divide the republican party and opposition by repelling 'moderates' who are inclined to support the president.

8. I don't think he's stupid at all

and he's far more structured and educated than Palin.

[bigtree]

9. he does come up with some nonsense, tho

I don't think his game is that smart, or his rhetoric either. I must have missed the 'educated parts of his presentation.

[Frank Cannon]

11. In all fairness, in comparison with Sara Palin...

ANYONE comes off looking like Wernher von Braun.

[bigtree]

15. They're both empty suits reciting conservative tripe like it's divine wisdom

Peas in a pod, imo.

[TheCowsCameHome]

10. He's not stupid. Politics is a beauty pageant these days

If you're handsome or good looking you have a huge advantage.

[bigtree]

12. you mean he's politically smart

I'm not convinced that he's as smart as the campaign he ran. I also believe he can be out-twittered and out-facebooked by a more aggressive and focused challenger than Coakley was. That was the essence of his 'smarts'. He advantaged his off-season election with technology and organizing. We can do the same . . . better, imo.

"In any other time in our history, this man would have been laughed off the stage as an unqualified and a disaster in the making by the most conservative of conservatives . . ." -Olbermann

14. ...and that's what it takes to win....

...Combined with an inept campaign by your opponent.

[wisteria]

16. "Honored and humbled", he over uses that phrase. It doesn't ring true.

And,he doesn't strike me as a humble guy.
Actually, his mentor-Mit Romney is likely to give it another go.And will need his PR team back, so Brown won't have them to use.

Instead of just letting this possibly happen, we should be working to expose how phony he really is and work to defeat him.

[Wizard777]

17. I don't think so. Republicans will be too worried about the Oval Office carpet to vote for him.

He might lay on it naked and get stains on it.

[Bitwit1234]

20. All he has to do is pin those nude pictures to his suits

and keep turning around and he sure will have all the republican women voting for him on the basis of 30 year old pictures. Hey maybe a lot of the dumb DEMOCRATS TOO.
