On ABC's "This Week," guest host Barbara Walters asks Sen.-elect Scott Brown: "You're still pro-choice?"

"Yes, because I feel this issue is best handled between a woman and her doctor and her family."

I read somewhere that Brown is the most moderate Republican in the Senate, even more than Snowe. He's immediately being considered as a potential national candidate in the near future (2012/2016). Once the folks at FoxNews, and the rest of the far right, get over their glee over winning the Senate seat in Massachusetts, it'll be interesting to see how enthused they are with Brown's actual views on the issues.

Looks like the staple is going to be in an uncomfortable spot.

I was discussing his win with a couple of Republicans and asked them about Brown's positions. They were wrong about every one of them. The only thing they knew was that he was "Anti-Obama"- not that he agrees with Obama on a lot of issues.

Oh I don't think he uses the word for himself. I just asked if maybe he actually WAS one.

I'm pretty sure there's a law that the more fame and power a Republican gets, the less pro-choice they have to become.

Is there another page? I found it odd that everyone was making such a big deal about his "nude" photoshoot when he's not really showing the goods.

Point very extremely exceedingly well taken.

It will be interesting to note how quickly the teabaggers turn on Brown. I think it'll be faster than my turn on Obama.

Give Obama time. He's got a lot on his plate. He's really busy. He's already going to start seeing about how they can look at getting started on the basic plan of holding hearings to determine if DADT can be repealed if that's okay with everybody.

Glenn Beck turned on Brown the morning after the election:

"I want a chastity belt on this man. I want his every move watched in Washington. I don't trust this guy. This one could end with a dead intern. I'm just saying. It could end with a dead intern."

He's showing about as much as Levi. I don't think I heard any Republicans call this "pornography".

SNL should do a Scott Brown/Lady Gaga parody of Gaga singing to the tune of "Monster" :

"That boy is a Maverick! Muh-muh-muh-Maverick...."
