Brown -- Not Good Enough.....

Really.....Warren has "stature"...really.....OK....if you say so....

In the end, Scott Brown was just too small to be a US Senator from Massachusetts.

Oh, there are plenty of things to say about why the race went the way it did -- and I'll write many of them when I've had a little bit of sleep.

But Massachusetts expects their Senators to be big figures. National figures. People who have purpose and stature.

Elizabeth Warren, whether you like everything she has to say, and whether she ends up being a good Senator, surely qualifies. You know what issues and passions drive her; you sense that she wants to shape the Commonwealth and the country.

You saw her speak in a major prime-time slot at the national convention; you saw her defend her ideas at a Senate hearing; you saw her on 60 Minutes and the cover of Time.

Brown is small, and grew smaller as the campaign progressed.
