BOSTON (AP) - Democratic Senate hopeful Elizabeth Warren and incumbent
Republican U.S. Sen. Scott Brown are appealing to shop owners as they try to
cast themselves as friendly to small businesses.
In a stop in Boston's Dorchester neighborhood Monday Warren launched what she
called the "Small Businesses for Elizabeth" group.
Warren echoed a familiar campaign theme, saying Washington is "rigged to work
for the big guys" and pledged to side with small businesses in
Massachusetts.
Brown also made a pitch to small business owners at a morning event in the
city's Mattapan neighborhood, delivering doughnuts and coffee to employees at
Auto Service and Tire.
During the stop Brown again charged Warren represents a "you didn't build it
on your own" mentality, while Warren's campaign said Brown continues to side
with big corporations.
