US Sen. Brown kicks off campaign re-election bid (AP)

WORCESTER, Mass. ? U.S. Sen. Scott Brown has officially kicked off his re-election campaign, casting his chief Democratic opponent Elizabeth Warren as an ideologue and pledging to be an independent voice in a deeply partisan Congress.

Brown, speaking to a crowd of cheering supporters, said he would continue to oppose the health care law signed by President Barack Obama and would fight against wasteful government spending.

Brown timed his Thursday evening event to coincide with the anniversary of his special election win in 2010 that catapulted him into the office once held by the late Democratic Sen. Edward Kennedy.

Brown also criticized what he called "establishment candidates" who wage class warfare by pitting one group of Americans against another and attacking the country's free enterprise system.

Warren called those remarks part of the "standard Republican playbook."
