I'm sure everyone has heard that always democratic Massachusetts filled the late Edward Kennedys seat with a republican vote!! Little known republican Scott Brown won the major upset on Tuesday. I was born and raised in Boston and still can't believe the news. I guess it just another "Shame on you" President Obama. Americans, clearly do not want the trillion dollar health reform that is being forced on us. It hurts medicade, takes away jobs and would run our nation deeper into debt, like we need that..Its ironic that Edwards Kennedy's passion was health care until his death from brain cancer. I don't want to start a political free for all but I think Obama has done a less than adequate job so far and his response to this new development was almost comical. He said something to the effect of "Well, I've lost touch with the people and especially those of my party. Its because of all the crisises I've had to devote my time too....but I promise, I'll do a better job this year" Give me a break,,Hey, I voted for him and hope the disappointment dosen't continue on. What is your take on Massachusetts? Were you as surprised as me?

I was a bit surprised when I started hearing how far Coakley was falling behind, a week or so ago. I was not surprised the day of the election, because by then the writing was on the wall. I do not think Obama realizes how serious this is though.

No, I dont think he does.. He needs to wake up. It will be real interesting to see both how this new man does as well as Obamas yet to be seen performance!!

I wasn't really suprised, Coakley and her capaign were an absolute trainwreck. Ted kenedy himself could have risen from the grave to campaign for her and she STILL would have lost. I don't know much about thie Brown fella, but you can be sure, the people who elected him willbe watching him with narrow eyes. If he turns in to another establishment republican, like all the other establishment politicians in congress, they will take him out just as fast as they put him in. People are dead-arsed tired of it, they are through folling around.
I see you had the good sense to get out of Boston at least, lol, I live right above in NH.

I LOVE NH!! I lived in Pelham and Derry many years ago. If I ever return to the Northeast, thats where I would go. Derry was beautiful..cold, but beautiful! Even though I had read about Coakleys campaign, I still thought that somehow she'd pull it out..Guess I thought wrong..Its going to be real interesting to see what goes on now...Thanks for the response...

Oh,...just a tip for you...This probably would have gotten more responses if you had posted it int politics section. Don't repost it there or anything, but in the future, you'll get a lot more responses to political discusions in that section. Here: http://www.mylot.com/w/li...
