Given the beating he and his POLITICAL agenda just took in Mass., why would Obama, knowingly support a loser, a known loser who is in a rating race for the bottom of the barrel with Pelosi? Has he not learned from Mass. that we the people are not interested in business as usual? He does not have the influence to sway the public on public issues, as in Mass, let alone lending support for a long time loser to get re-elected. His so called team is not advising him based on reality…..ONLY POLITICS!!! That will be his continuing down fall:

I don't think he realizes that we the people pulled the brake on his agenda Tuesday. He and his team are still moving forward as though nothing has happened, as they THINK they still have forward momentum.....what they will realize soon is that forward momentum is only sliding forward until the brake brings them to a stop!!!!!!!!!!

As Obama said yesterday, it is much easier to campaign than it is to govern.....must be why he spends so much time at it.

Methinks he should be recognizing by now that just having the title POTUS does not make things happen.

I believe we may have just experienced a great tatical political move. If the democrats won the Mass election they would have had a very hard time of backing off on some of the crazy bills bring run through by Pelosi and Reid. In particular they would have a difficult time in being a part of killing the Health Bill, Cap & Trade, etc.
With a Republican win a number of their problems have gone away. They can fall back that they don't have the 60 majority needed to follow through, blame the republicans for the bill being killed and take a deep breath of thanks for being saved for the time being.. It will probably lead to Pelosi and Reid demise for getting them into this fix. They will have lost a lot of the socialistic push they have been pushing. If I am right it was a stroke of political genius. They will try to "bury" the bribes they fostered by changing the subject

It wasn't the Republicans that killed the bill, it was the American people and they won't forget the Democratic shenanigans. They still have another good spanking waiting for them later this year.

The Independents also made their voice load and clear.

How many blue dogs/conservative leaning Dems do ya think contributed to the Republican win of Scott Brown - just so that something would get them off the hook of having to tow the party line!?!

Seems they got it at lot more than Obama did. I near fell off of my chair when I heard him say that the people are upset with the last 8 years of governing! He hasn't got a clue!!!

Get Rid of Incumbent Politicians

I was a bit upset at the "shot" at Bush also ! He does that on a regular basis.

The vote in Mass had NOTHING WHATSOEVER to do with Bush !

Damn skippy, it had nothing to do with Bush! I haven't seen so much buck passing since my son tried to blame the dog for losing his homework -- and the dog was at the vet's at the time!!![
