Republicans celebrate now, but the victory will be a reminder that you better get your act together. Democrats, now it's time to regroup. We can't allow the defeat down you! Best believe that the "tea party movement" is a thorn in the side. But it's best to line up a strategy.
Democrats lose the seat held by the late senator Ted Kennedy. The Democrats are now scrambling for a massive defensive. Republicans celebrate a strong victory. Scott Brown, now senator-elect, what's next?
President of The United States? Who knows, Drudge? Seriously, I think dude sees the same crystal ball I see!
Conservative activists are gloating now that Scott Brown may be the future of the once disgraced party. Republicans have channeled into the anger of the "angry white male". President Barack Obama ratings according to GALLUP is standing around 50% - 43%. The support among white voters is down significantly. Again, the conservative media, Fox News, Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Bill O'Reilly, Sean Hannity, Michelle Malkin and Matt Drudge want the president to fail!
They'll line up a moderate Republican to defeat President Obama! And once again, the partisan gap increases. Independents are the key to election victories. Democrats, it's time to step your game up! What's the problem? If I voted for a decent health care reform, I wanted it with the public option! If one thing has taught me about politicians, they are destructive! And to make this clear, Republicans are no better. If they were better, then Senator John McCain and Sarah Palin would run this country.
I seriously believe the Republicans want to continue to push the "angry white male", "concern housewife", "the gun owner who is concerned that President Obama will take his gun", "angry banker who wants to rip me and millions of other off with high deductible loans and foreclose on my home" and follow the "angry guy on the radio who spouts off!"
Democratic Senate Candidate Martha Coakley is challenging Republican candidate Scott Brown for the U.S. Senate Election in Massachusetts. The seat was held by the late senator Edward Kennedy. If she loses this election, it may doom President Obama's agenda, and create another partisan divide that may affect 2010 U.S. Midterm Elections.
WAKE UP CALL FOR THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY!
As you may know, the media is turning their eyes on Massachusetts. The U.S. Senate special election for the seat that once was held by Edward Kennedy, has turn uglier.
Scott Brown, the Republican is leading in a few polls and is posing as a major threat to the Democratic-filibuster proof majority. A relativity unknown Republican from Massachusetts may be the first in 40 years to win a seat in a strongly Democratic state.
The Republican Senatorial Campaign, conservative activists, and political opponents are pouring money into the campaign of Scott Brown.
The Democratic candidate Martha Coakley was leading throughout the entire month, but things have turned sour. Her campaign has turned ugly in the final days and needed the assistance of President Obama, former President Bill Clinton and many other Democrats to stomp for her. Many fault her for a lackluster campaign, and being too eager.
Scott Brown's popularity soured throughout the campaign, since being spotlighted on Fox News and conservative blogs. His political capital has benefited him in the social networking sites. Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter has an outpouring of support from conservative activists.
Republicans are hoping they seek victory after winning the governorships in Virginia and New Jersey.
Now I could be jumping the gun, but I can conclude that Brown may seek 2012 as a bigger step in his quest. The way he's going, I can see that Republicans want to line him up as a candidate for president.
Brown is a moderate and that may fit into the mode of New England residents.
I will see the results on the news and congratulate the winner of this election.
United States Senate Special Election: Democratic leaders are bracing for a defeat. A Republican may win a seat once held by the prominent liberal, Edward Kennedy.
Scott Brown, Republican State Senator from Massachusetts has pulled ahead in a few polls and it spells trouble for the 60-seat majority of the Democratic Party. The candidate for the Democrats, Martha Coakley, state attorney general was a sure in to win this. Unfortunately, the Republicans and the echo chamber of conservative activists, are pouring in last minute cash to make sure they defeat health care reform, a prime agenda for President Barack Obama.
Nate Silver, founder of FiveThirtyEight explains that the possibility of a defeat is imminent.
Excerpts from Silver:
It should be kept in mind that a lot of Brown's support is pretty new, which would ordinarily imply that it is pretty soft. Yes, I know there's a core of people -- maybe a fairly large core -- who are really, really excited about Scott Brown. But they only get to vote once apiece. And what the earlier polling established is that it's almost certainly not 50 percent of the electorate -- it might be 35 percent or 40 percent, but it's not 50 percent. He still needs some swing voters to get him over the finish line. Some of those voters were probably tending toward Brown over the last 7-10 days, when he was winning virtually every news cycle. But the headlines in the last 72 hours -- the ones that those voters will be thinking about as they head into the ballot booth -- may be a bit more even-handed (especially given Obama's visit, etc.), and a voter who has swing once is prone to swing again.
The White House is hoping that a little boast from President Obama can help the Coakley campaign stumble to the finish line. Democratic leaders are going to need every member to get support for the health care reform.
