| Republican Scott Brown joins the Fox News team |
Where do failed politicians go after they’ve been rejected by their electorate? It seems Fox News is their new destination.
To help ratings, Fox has been shifting the face of its
commentators steadily more to the left in order to keep it more “fair and
balanced.”
Former Congressman Dennis Kucinich, lost his gerrymandered
district in Ohio
and had to try a stab at a re-gerrymandered
constituency that would never elect him.
The far left, camera whore/congressman, was said to have his
eye on a new congress gig representing Washington
state, but his magic carpetbagger ride was interrupted by lagging poll numbers.

But not to miss a paycheck, or camera time, Kucinich was
scooped up by Fox where he can dazzle the viewers with his practiced, non
answer answers, on many topical subjects.
Ex-Massachusetts Senator and Playgirl centerfold, Scott
Brown, is the latest addition to the Fox contributor stable.
Brown, fresh off a humiliating defeat to a candidate who
should have been shamed out of the campaign for abusing the system, rather than
being coronated Senator of Massachusetts, can grace Fox viewers with his
vanilla views on national politics.
Brown and Mitt Romney, both headquartered in Massachusetts, used the
same political playbook as they waged their campaigns. Both of them seemed hesitant to answer back
attacks waged on them and never took advantage of clear targets when it came to
their opponents glaring weaknesses.
Brown pulled punches with Elizabeth Warren, by not
aggressively going to the source, legally, on how she received her positions in
govt/universities by claiming to be a Native American. Clearly, a fraudulent abuse of federal/state affirmative
action laws, as it was found Warren
had no legitimate claim for Native American status.
As a result of his vanilla campaign, he lost to Elizabeth
Warren and the Senate has another far left ideologue in its midst to wage war
on its private sector, and tax and spend the country into oblivion.
Mitt Romney’s campaign was similar to Browns, in that it was
hesitant to exploit the failures of Obama and aggressively go after Obama's past…on
many levels. In the few times Romney
actually called out Obama on his issues, his poll numbers rose.
But Romney failed to keep up the attack and soon lost the
messaging war in the media to Obama. Romney
failed to punch back at Obama. Romney
failed to play by the same Chicago
street rules the Obama campaign played by.
Romney/Brown preferred to politically box by the Marquess of
Queensbury rules, when their opponents in the ring were playing by the, “just
win baby” rules.
As a result, these nice guys finished 2nd….and the nation is
the real loser.
But Fox’s Roger Ailes knows how to take lemons and make lemon-aid
out of them…will we soon see Mitt Romney as a contributor? Stay tuned.
