Scott Brown Spox Apparently Outs His Dem-Mocking Twitter Feed

Evan McMorris-Santoro

It's time to write the next chapter in the growing political tome, "The Trouble With Twitter."

Eric Fehrnstrom, adviser to both Sen. Scott Brown (R-MA) and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney (R), apparently outed himself as the man behind @CrazyKhazei, a Twitter feed that mocks Alan Khazei, the former City Year executive and founder of Be The Change who's running to take on Brown in next year's election. (Readers may know the race as the one progressives really want Elizabeth Warren to run in.)

Fehrnstrom, it appears, sent a tweet intended for @CrazyKhazei from his personal account, thus making him the latest person to press the wrong button on a Twitter app and find himself, er, exposed.

The blog BlueMass first noticed the tweet. Politico's Ben Smith noted that the @CrazyKhazei feed was created by Brown's campaign team.

1. I read the article and it appears to be in English but have no idea what it says.

Case in point:

That can often happen when a person with multiple accounts chooses the wrong distribution channel on social media aggregation software such as HootSuite or TweetDeck.

Huh?

3. It means

he screwed up. He chose the wrong account to send the message.

2. "Spox"? Apparently a noun.

More hints?

5. Yep. I was wondering who was behind this anti-Khazei campaign these last few days.

Happy to see Fehrnstrom outed himself...

6. Alan Khazei is a good man. I have met him several times.

A choice which includes both he and Elizabeth Warren, MA will have a very exciting primary season. Btw..there are currently at least 4 others in the race, in addition to Khazei and Warren. (I'm assuming she is in.)

7. I think there are at least 4 or 5 candidates that are exciting. Any of them would be a great senator

8. I wholeheartedly agree!

We are in for a ROCKING good primary season!

9. I liked his appearance on NECN talking about this

He made excellent use of his time to politely go after Brown.
