Elizabeth Warren reacts to news of Scott Brown's likely US Senate run

Just minutes after Republican Scott Brown announced he was launching an exploratory committee and a state-wide tour of New Hampshire for a potential U.S. Senate run there, his most well-known political foe fired off an email to supporters.

U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren, the Massachusetts Democrat who unseated Brown in the 2012 contest in the Bay State, reacted to the news by making a fundraising plea to her own supporters, asking them to open up their wallets for U.S. Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, the incumbent Democrat Brown will face should he indeed end up running as the Republican Party's nominee.

"It just happened: A few minutes ago, Scott Brown officially announced that he’s forming an exploratory committee to run against my friend Jeanne Shaheen for the Senate in New Hampshire," Warren wrote in the email. "Scott Brown may have moved to the Granite State, but we’re not going anywhere. Will you help us raise $25,000 for Jeanne Shaheen’s campaign right now? Let’s remind Scott Brown what he’s still up against if he runs for the Senate in New Hampshire."
