The Massachusetts
centerfold senator is avoiding a Palin Tea Party rally on the Boston Common on Wednesday. But local Tea Partiers claim they aren't mad, because Brown "has half a century of Kennedy damage to compensate for." Conservative tension brewing!
Not everyone is convinced that Brown just has so much work to do in Washington that he can't make it. From the Boston Herald:
" 'He wants to mainstream himself before the election,' said Larry Sabato, a University of Virginia political scientist." ....
Imagine that. Being associated with a bunch of racist, illiterate, old people may actually do a politician more harm than good. And this isn't the only Tea Party snub from Senator Brown, who may be turning his back on the wackos who backed his everyman-in-a-pick-up-truck campaign: ....
Brown and Palin have a history of missed connections. When Brown won the election, he denied receiving a congratulatory phone call from firebrand Palin, but later said he simply "forgot." Take a hint: He doesn't like you!

We've just run across this intriguing CBS poll which shows that the Palin is viewed favorably by just 24 per cent of people, and unfavorably by 38 per cent. Admittedly, the numbers get better among Republicans. But still. 2012? (CBS)
