Oh, wouldn’t it just be delicious if a Republican wins Obama’s old senate seat this fall?
The Hill: In a year when populism is good politics, Scott Brown has given Republicans a model for how to harness voters’ frustration.
Voters are “angry and concerned. But I would say it’s overwhelmingly based on policy — anti-spending, anti-tax, anti-corruption,” said Rep. Mark Kirk (Ill.), who’s hoping to become the next Republican to claim a big Democratic scalp.
Sen.-elect Brown, who snagged Sen. Ted Kennedy’s old seat in an upset last week against Democrat Martha Coakley, showed the GOP how to run “a quiet, disciplined campaign rigorously focusing on economic issues,” Kirk told The Hill. “Many of the same concerns, especially about the corruption inside the healthcare bill, are shared by the people of Illinois. Corruption is probably an even bigger issue in Illinois because of the arrest of Governor [Rod] Blagojevich and his trial coming up this summer.”
