Default 'Epic upset'

When the AP waxes poetic about a Republican victory, you know you've achieved something.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_massachusetts_senate

I remain skeptical that the GOP can stage a massive comeback over the next two election cycles if they don't unite behind common candidates and causes, but one thing is for certain: If I'm a Democrat, I'm scared $h!tless right now. There couldn't be a clearer message sent against Obama's policies than what Scott Brown's election sent tonight.

If I'm a Democrat, I'm thinking this: If you can't win a Senate race in Massachusetts, a seat held by the Kennedys for a half-century, where CAN you win?? If I were them, I would lick my wounds, count my losses, and let health care reform go quietly into the night. It's becoming increasingly clear that Americans won't do it. Instead, they're busy crafting ways they can scoot around a filibuster in the Senate. Foolish, foolish, foolish. Oh well. Their loss is a loss for liberalism, and that's never a bad thing.

Brown will vote to de-rail national healthcare reform: That is what he was elected to do and it's the right thing to do. i'll bet that senator Kerry's jaws are tight this morning.

Brown must stand for re-election in 2012 when Kennedy's term would have expired. If Brown displeases the ultra-liberal PRMA electorate they will dust off a Kennedy family member to oppose him and Brown will be dog meat in 2012. Look for Brown to vote along with the Democrats on any anti-gun legislation that comes down the pike.
