Politico‘s Dave Catanese caught up with Sen. Scott Brown (R-MA) Tuesday night after TPM reported he sounded a little concerned about the new PPP poll showing him losing to former White House economic adviser Elizabeth Warren.
Catanese did not find Brown to be chatty about the poll…or much of anything else, for that matter.
From his report:
Brown also showed no interest in talking politics on the day a new Democratic-leaning Public Policy Polling survey showed him behind Warren for the first time in a general election match-up.
“There’s going to be plenty of polls. I don’t think about polls. Never been a big poll guy,” he said.
Asked about a Talking Points Memo report that documented the senator outside his office on his cellphone expressing disbelief about the polling, Brown replied sternly at the door, “Excuse me, I’m all set.”
“His wife is right there,” said his communications director, as she gently grabbed my arm and ended the 45-second interview.
