How is Brown "not much of a conservative"?
He's from Mass, like our politicians in NY, they are not very conservative. But I'll take him any day.
He does believe in gov run heath care, he just doesn't want this version and he knows that Obama is spending way too much, so he's not going to vote for it. But don't kid yourself, he's not a really big conservative. At least he's not a socialist either.
Either way, it was a vote against Obama and the progressives!
