State Sen. Scott Brown blasted Bay State expectations today with a bombshell victory over his Democratic rival to capture the open U.S. Senate seat by a 5-point margin.
“I bet they can hear this cheering all the way to Washington, D.C.,” Brown said tonight.
“Tonight the independent voice of Massachusetts has spoken,” he added. “I am ready to go to Washington without delay.”
