Fmr. Sen. Scott Brown has been out of a job less than one day, but he may decide to try to make it back to the Senate in a few months. If he does, will Eric Fehrnstrom get to be his adviser again? I got to wondering about that, and went to Fehrnstrom's twitter feed for answers, only to find, frozen in time, the remnants of not one, but two failed campaigns:

Ha-ha!
Poor Eric is still trying to shake his Etch-A-Sketch. Is there such a thing as a Twit-A-Sketch? He needs one.
It just occurred to me that the reason political deals were reached in the past was PORK! We need it to entice our political "leaders" from different ideological backgrounds into deals. With no treats there's little cause for agreement. Pork is probably well worth the cost.
Brown should sign him on. How else can Markey go from 30 points down to plus 8 immediately?
Former-Senator Brown has already begun his low level attacks against Rep. Ed Markey by claiming he has never seen him on an airplane commuting between Massachusetts and D.C., thereby deducing that Markey is not a "real" resident of Massachusetts. Sound familiar?
In 2006, then Speaker Pelosi created the Select Committee for Energy Independence and Global Warming, which was chaired by Rep. Ed Markey. In 2011, the Republican majority eliminated the committee.
As a member of the Progressive Caucus and due to his stance on the environment and other issues (including FCC rules), I've been following Markey's career for years. I hope to see all Democrats and Progressive Independents support Markey in the upcoming special election.
Scott Brown should take his two retirement packages, three when he leaves his position with the National Guard and just drive his Porsche into the sunset.
