Scott Brown: Republican Rock Star
They are so sure of themselves.


With shouts, a giddy old party greets a new friend: Hope


By Stephanie Ebbert
Globe Staff / April 18, 2010

WORCESTER — As Republican rock-star-of-the-season Scott Brown took the stage, Stacey Yasutovich, a 20-year-old student and church youth director, rose to her feet amid a crowd of middle-aged delegates, and let loose a hoot of approval: “Woo-hoo!’’


Yasutovich was one of hundreds of first-time delegates to yesterday’s Massachusetts Republican convention, fervently entering the fray at a moment when the GOP’s fortunes in Massachusetts seem more promising than they have in her lifetime.

“Oh my gosh, I’m so pumped,’’ the Franklin woman said. As a conservative Christian and a Republican voter, she added, she always felt like a minority in Massachusetts. “The minority is finally going up and fighting and going through the barriers. I’m just like, out of my mind!’’


(More if you can stand it)

3. I thought Sarah Palin was their "rock star". Or was it Bobby Jindal? Or Gingrich?
Or Joe Wilson. Or Liz Cheney. Or George P. Bush (remember him? :rofl:)

Seriously, every other week some other right-wing loser is proclaimed by the media to be the "rising star" of the GOP, they get all this attention, and then people realize how insane (or stupid) they are.
