Sen. Scott Brown, Who Is Against Back Room Deals, Makes Back Room Deal
Sen. Scott Brown has arrived in the Senate. Mr. Brown rode into DC promising to eliminate back room deals, and railing against sweetheart deals like the "Cornhusker Kickback" and the "Louisiana Purchase", deals aimed at winning support for bills from specific senators. Mr. Brown has managed to get a sweetheart deal for his bank constituents, which undermines the whole point of the financial reform bill. Congrats, Mr. Brown, on becoming the newest Senator from Wall St!
