The Elizabeth Warren/Scott Brown race gets more intense by the day, especially as the female Democrat continues to school her opponent in fundraising, but the butting heads aren’t so different after all, as they have something rather significant in common.

The ongoing Senate battle between Scott Brown and Elizabeth Warren just got more interesting.

Move over, Obama: Massachusetts Senate candidate Elizabeth Warren could be the new politico favorite among celebrities. But GOP Senator Scott Brown, Warren’s opponent for the senate seat, doesn’t seem as impressed by his competitor’s Hollywood popularity as many teeny boppers and young potential voters would be. The Massachusetts Republican said on Thursday, “To go off to Hollywood and get the Barbra Streisand and Danny Devito crowd and get all that Hollywood money smacks in the face of what she’s fighting for, which is the middle class.”

Elizabeth Warren raised $5.7 million over the last three months of 2011 for her challenge to Republican Senator Scott Brown who currently sits in the seat once occupied by Ted Kennedy. That haul of cash is twice what Brown raised in the same quarter.
