How the *)#$ is Scott Brown one of the most influencial people in the world?

This guy lucked out with his win. The emotions were high, the tea baggers protested and Coakly ran a piss poor campaign because she thought it was assumed she would win. In 2 years Scott Brown will be replaced with a much more representative candidate for Massachusetts.

He's a lame duck and Time makes him one of the most influential people in the world? What crack were they smoking?

1. It's Time magazine

They've been off their rocker for a while now.

They put Beck on the list and his followers number less than 2 million.

10. not this stupid meme again

he is not a teabagger, he is not stupid and vacuous like palin, and it is comparisons like this that LED to his win

just because he's pretty doesn't make him palin

he's infinitely more substantial than she is

5. GOP has a telegenic guy without much of a track record for us to tear apart

They think they have a contenda! All they have to do is convince people he is something important.

One of the problems with America now is too much marketing and an audience too easily moved by it.
PR over substance = junk food, junk investments, and a lot of junk pols.
