Scott Brown offensively says the widow of an asbestos victim in a Warren ad was a paid actor

Today, Sen. Scott Brown (R-MA) sunk to a new low when he suggested at a campaign stop that the family members of asbestos victims who were in a campaign commercial for Elizabeth Warren were actually paid actors. [...]

"A lot of them are paid," Brown said. "We hear that maybe they pay actors. Listen, you can get surrogates and go out and say your thing. We have regular people in our commercials. No one is paid. They are regular folks that reach out to us and say she is full of it."

Brown has now apologized.

Typical republibagger behavior - we shouldn't be surprised.
