Barnett campaign manager for Scott Brown talked to us about the campaign good morning Jim welcome to WRKO. -- we're doing great Jim thanks for joining us there. -- I don't hear any Indian sound effects or anything. I would -- you wanna play this up really a stunning do you wanna talk about this good because it's just stunning the revelation that came out yesterday. On Elizabeth Warren building her career apparently or allowing. Justice and a discussion on in major newspapers. About her having a credential as the first. Woman of color at Harvard law. Well it track it back -- but look at. What happened frankly believe that war needs to be held accountable watching -- to release the records that would demonstrate. How and why she can't be listed like that and it's a revelation every day weren't they want -- Of the trip drip drip of information coming out and that it has separation coming out. Oversee long record time is that was the war it is opting for -- with people should not. Are being up front and providing information that exists. So. -- looked at this issue for herself. And until she comes clean. And frankly until our burden and universe it's kind -- thing -- complain about our -- it's electric minority of American color. And that this is going to be here and in parameter. It's it's it's a troubling because -- -- story and challenge and it's full of contradictions she said that she. And like the Al arbour and it was strip minority and we can find out. She herself with a personal. As -- American minority in the American Association want schools directory. Active directory is -- herders have -- minority candidates. For call for censorship. Which clearly. But but -- even if that wasn't the case even if if somehow this story had developed about Liz Warren all by itself. And she was not complicit in that. But suddenly it's in the Harvard Crimson the school newspaper. And then it's enough Fordham university's newspaper that she's the first woman of color from Harvard and Harvard is telling people this. Wouldn't the burden beyond her to stand up and and and jump and scream saying you guys have something wrong here fix it immediately. Well -- I think right certainly -- being touted as something she's not. As evidence of the universe is commitment to our city. And that. But the truth matters are part going on three weeks. Become a battle and sure it's it's not gonna tell it. If the truth. Were. Favorable to her that the truth will stay local -- -- you would've done a long time ago. But I think they're. They made a calculation within a war and the only thing works. The question without injury pure math. Is that the truth might actually come out. And socially and over and universe it's purple and all of whom have their reputation on the line and corrected the wild side -- that question. That's what's disturbing Jim Burnett as -- -- campaign manager for Scott Brown. What's disturbing is that I don't know what's in a week or ten days ago she stopped saying anything except whatever line had been assigned to -- proud of my. My heritage. Without actually explaining everything so she's gone in the opposite direction the -- talking about. But it actually contract intransigence because. As we found out yesterday their hero -- This year has been a lot of American ancestry so perverted and look at the end there and say. How proud she is not -- -- just sounds absolutely ludicrous I would open typical voter. And this would seem to. Pose grave danger for her does that put them pose any challenges for you as a manager Scott's campaign. That you guys don't get to talk about your record because this consumes all the coverage. Well look aren't being and and corporate ethnic candidate -- state senate. Is important frankly all of this the basic I have nothing to do about was the worst credentials to be Harvard professor. It's about whether Russia the credentials to be United States senator and that starts with being forthright. And honest with the people which -- under present. And right now party have to forget the voters of basic issues not telling the truth there write -- -- So. You know I think that's an issue that needs to be resolved. With the war means to authorize the release of the personnel file that will presumably show out here. With the personal with these schools because -- got -- strategy -- she started out saying yeah now now IP Al -- at this site is reversed its Pennsylvania. Comes out also saying she's the minority I don't think -- to a Jewish and slow to match. Conclusion. Independently of each other without her being the source it. Jim -- -- open where the what you described as the drip drip -- this it it's astounding to me to hear how you characterized it that it's been twenty days I do this and it's long running story but the let it go -- twenty days is it really just is you know head shaking anywhere -- seen a lot of politics and not time. But this this this one is just how amazing and some of the ineptitude that we've seen coming from outside question field. Debates any early discussion about when way ask how many. And specifically. Called out to one here and our Cahill also with me and Todd. I can tell you that we -- question we haven't even begun -- Even consider this is the question this is an order -- -- Are telling. So yeah yeah I was ordered that the approach what college requests in due time we're a long way to unpack the Democrat still. Have a primary you will wait to get through here. And sell what you outcome of that where there. Maybe a little less certain to their networks -- weeks ago that in the form of economic. -- before you go opinions Seles in the fund raising. How much more money is the Scott Brown campaign getting from Wall Street than Elizabeth Warren -- You know I don't numbers. The bottom line though is that forest 800000. Dollars from. Wall Street. So I mean there's it was important standard. Is Wall Street on our -- ones you don't pay more that I. It's their hypocritical arbor. And you know stop Andre money just like every other. -- -- here in Massachusetts -- Wall Street money but now on the Wall Street -- center here while I was in the war. It's Wall Street might start -- this is you know something that trot out her shiny objects that speak to distract people from. The real. Question it's not out there not wireless that warns presenting herself as a minority which is clearly wanted to. Jim part of thank you summit campaign manager Scott Brown could well afford of the debate pick a date soon for a second. Take our and -- time this morning with Major Garrett in with Jim about that have been brought to has been brought you by the key guys come by -- made easy. Paul good morning R&R KO. Good morning guys let's. A quickly with regard to Elizabeth Warren and Scott cramping. With University of Pennsylvania in the university so certainly they could be compelled to release some of that information -- air. You know -- by not so much but to some degree because federal funding goes the state university's well but certainly by the state currently. I have a feeling this is gonna work its way through. Public opinion here Massachusetts all by itself she's gonna have to do something to stop this because. The fact that she was claimed as a woman of color the first woman of color hired by Harvard -- stunning. I mean that Anita Hill just to name one. Woman of column -- who I think conception was subsequently hide but which one do you think it has more legit enactment. How I think in the uterus -- based upon a visual view of how I'll admit to being superficial on this one. But I think needing help -- would be so many. You know candidates of college so many candidates of -- many of home. Would have applied. All of them would have been a lot of to have been chosen by how to live in his there's a level -- something about that Cherokee thing a feel good morning see him. Hey bill. Hello.
