(18,541 posts)Sounds like the attacks against Brown must be hitting home. If they're even "attacks". Most people would probably characterize them as truths.

(26,335 posts)Among the ads Brown has said should be pulled are ads funded by Crossroads GPS, an affiliate of American Crossroads, a group with ties to GOP political operative Karl Rove.

(50,444 posts)It's more likely they are pro-Brown and Brown is 'offering' to speak against them if Ms. Warren will speak against all the anti-Brown ads.
I'm guessing the ads that are pro-Warren are much more effective than the Rove one and Brown's getting hurt hence his 'offer'.

Perhaps Ms. WArren should ask Mr. Brown to return any money he recieved from the Koch brothers as a counter offer.

According to OpenSecrets.org, employees of Koch Industries have donated $15,250 for Scott Brown's 2012 re-election attempt. Scott Brown is on Koch Industries top 5 list of candidates they have given the most cash to.

(50,444 posts)but not Ms. Warren. I am sure there is an ad for that issue to be raised when the timing is right, I hope so, anyway.
The more the spotlight is put on the koch brothers and their attempts to subvert the election process, the better it will be, imo.
