Give them this much - Scott Brown's critics are quick on their feet.
Shortly after California Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer announced Thursday that she would not seek re-election in 2016, a parody Twitter account popped up joking that Brown might move to California to run for Boxer's seat. Here are a couple of the tweets that were sent out:

Brown, a former Republican Massachusetts Senator, took a lot of heat last year when he moved to New Hampshire and ran for Senate there. Democrats repeatedly called him a "carpetbagger," and he went on to lose a close race to Democratic incumbent Jeanne Shaheen in the November election.
