Scott Brown is in the process of crisscrossing the state this weekend as part of a thank-you tour to Massachusetts voters who chose him over Democrat Martha M. Coakley in a Jan. 19 special election to fill the unexpired term of the late Sen. Edward M. Kennedy. Does this bode well for the Republican party across the country?

A torrent of so-called "robocalls" in the final days of the Massachusetts Senate campaign has prompted one state legislator to look into restricting the automated political calls. Rep.

Kulik about his proposed legislation. Would you support a ban on robo calls?

Ben Nelson, D-Neb., said today he will vote on Saturday to allow the health care debate to begin -- putting Senate Democratic leaders that much closer to the 60 votes they need to start the debate. In a statement, Nelson -- who had been waffling on how he would vote -- said his vote Saturday is "not for or against the new Senate health care bill." What do you think about the healthcare bill?
