Who wants to marry into the newest political power family?  I know I do.  Thanks for the offer Scott Brown, but I'm actually going to have to pass.  I would have burned my ACLU card in a second for the chance, but unfortunately I'm already locked up.

In all seriousness, and I know I'm going to get killed by everyone here, but I don't care that he won.  I have too much going on right now personally.  Is this a sign the Republicans are going to come storming back?  Possibly.  Still don't care.  What I care about is that the Democrats had their chance for healthcare and they blew it.  On almost every level.  Depending on how the question is asked and what poll you decide to agree with, a majority of Americans actually support a public option.  That was back in June.  Then months go by.  You kill the public option, you add a bunch of red tape, and have meetings behind closed doors.  Guess what?  Just 38% of the public support your plan.  They had their chance and blew it.  Martha Coakley might have been a bad candidate, but it takes more than a bad candidate to lose as a Dem in Mass.

This man didn't kill healthcare, the Democrats did -

There might be some men burning their ACLU cards for different reasons...

Ugh, what's with you and the pictures you're including on your blog lately? Seriously.

Besides the picture, I think I agree with everything else you wrote in this post which is a first for one of your political posts. 

The Dems blew it big time and everything going on in your personal life is far more important.

I have a problem with the claim that the majority of Americans support a public option.

The questions were somewhat misleading. Just like many bills are... "Do you want to save pigs?" for example... and you say... "Of course I want to save pigs!!!" Then suddenly there's a massive insane tax that's passed to protect pigs from verbal assaults and a whole government department that gets created to manage it.

I think if they had worded it as saying "Do you want a Single Payer System" which is exactly what the ultimate goal of this whole program is (make no mistake about it), then I guarante it wouldn't be the same results.

What I think you'll find is that AS more and more people started to become knowledgable about what exactly the government option entails, and all the other crap that goes along with it... the support quickly dropped. It is also for that reason why Obama refused to allow CSPAN or any public hearing of the negotiations... he KNEW that when people became wise to exactly what was going on, it would lose support (and that's exactly what's happened).

427? I think that Prefix is from Deerfield Beach or maybe Pompano?

By the way, you should watch Hardball with Chris Mathews right now. He's tearing into Howard Dean about this very subject. Dean is calling him crazy because he's saying that people were polled and that they support a public option. Mathews is saying... that he's nuts because MA was given the choice between a NO vote and a PUBLIC OPTION vote, and the NO vote won with 30% of the Democrat vote.

People don't just NOT support this bill, they ALSO don't support a public option now that they know exactly what it is that this means. What else has happened since that poll? GM was nationalized, AIG, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac was nationalized, other banks were nationalized, jobs continued to be lost, Obama hired at least 20 more czars, he enabled the Cash 4 Clunker's program, he also talked about passing a Cap & Trade tax... eliminating marriage tax credits and halving the child credit because "No one asked for them, and no one needs them..."

As far as I'm concerned, it's self explanitory...

The Republicans had their chance for healthcare and they blew it, too...

-

which shows that health care is not that significant of an issue
