I, like many people, was watching the Senate race in Massachusetts with bated breath. It wasn’t just a long held Democratic seat but a 47 year Kennedy held seat. The uber-Democratic seat. So it is very excited for me as a Republican to see the seat fall to Scott Brown. So what does this mean for the Democrats and their future in the next set of elections?
I hope this means that the American people are seeing the Democratic party and President Obama for what they are. Charles Krauthammer said it quite well:
Brown ran on a very specific, very clear agenda. Stop health care. Don’t Mirandize terrorists. Don’t raise taxes; cut them. And no more secret backroom deals with special interests.
These deals — the Louisiana purchase, the Cornhusker kickback — had engendered a national disgust with the corruption and arrogance of one-party rule. The final straw was the union payoff — in which labor bosses smugly walked out of the White House with a five-year exemption from a (“Cadillac”) health insurance tax Democrats were imposing on the 92 percent of private-sector workers who are not unionized.
So what does this mean for November? I hope that it starts with Barbara Boxer loosing her seat! Here is to another American Revolution!
