WASHINGTON (AP) - The ill winds of an angry electorate are blowing against Democrats, the warning signs clear in a closer-than-expected Massachusetts Senate race that may doom President Barack Obama's health care agenda and foreshadow the party's midterm election prospects.
Anti-incumbent, antiestablishment sentiment is rampant. Independents are leaving Obama. Republicans are energized. Democrats are subdued. And none of that bodes well for the party in power.
"It's going to be a hard November for Democrats," Howard Dean, the Democratic Party chairman in 2006 and 2008 elections when the party took control of the White House and Congress, told The Associated Press in an interview. "Our base is demoralized."
While he praised Obama as a good president, Dean said the Democrat hasn't turned out to be the "change agent" the party thought it elected, and voters who supported Democrats in back-to-back elections now are turned off. Said Dean: "They really thought the revolution was at hand but it wasn't, and now they're getting the back of the hand."
Just how much voters have soured since Obama took office—and took over a country in chaos—is reflected in the president's late-game decision to rush to Massachusetts on Sunday to try to stave off an extraordinary Republican upset in the race for a Senate seat Democrats have held for more than half a century.
Obama faced a no-win situation as he weighed whether to campaign with Democrat Martha Coakley. Had he decided against going, he would have enraged the base and been blamed if she lost. But a Coakley defeat following a presidential visit would be embarrassing, raising questions about Obama's popularity and political muscle.

Barry still seems oblivious to the sinking employment figures and holds tightly to his half baked wealth redistribution plans. You’d think he’d get the message after Mass. of all places wants to throw the Dems out, but ego and hubris insulates him from reality.
Well the other telling story is they dont care much for Obama in Mass, he may have won the GE there but no other Dem on the ballot and he lost the primary by a wide margin to Hillary, never forget that.
We need Freepers and Tea Partiers to come out in force to vote and watch the polls.
The kenyan still doesnt get it, will never get it. Him going to Mass will be the final nail in the coffin for a Brown victory.What’s funny is he cant blame Bush for this major mishap.

DemoLiberal “Intellectuals”:
“Tell the rabble to be quiet
We anticipate a riot
This common crowd
Is much too loud.
Tell the mobs who sing your song
That they are fools and they are wrong
They are a curse
They should disperse...”
By the rude bridge that arched the flood,
Their flag to April’s breeze unfurled,
Here once the embattled farmers stood,
And fired the shot heard round the world.
The foe long since in silence slept;
Alike the conqueror silent sleeps;
And Time the ruined bridge has swept
Down the dark stream which seaward creeps.
On this green bank, by this soft stream,
We set to-day a votive stone;
That memory may their deed redeem,
When, like our sires, our sons are gone.
Spirit, that made those heroes dare
To die, and leave their children free,
Bid Time and Nature gently spare
The shaft we raise to them and thee.
The rats followed the pied piper off the cliff
Energy is high. I have gotten one kind of mailing every day this week regarding voting for Brown. Phone call last night and the night before. Orange NRA ALert card mailings. About one Brown sign every half mile or so. Lots of TV Advertising. The JournoScum always run a Coakley Ad directly AFTER a Brown ad on local TV, to make certain Coakley has the last word. But that does not seem to be working.
Many "Crawl Over Broken Glass" Emails going around my circle of friends.
Now, THIS is Hope and Change.
Well, even a near miss will send a message.
"See Purple, Open Fire".
“Just how much voters have soured since Obama took office—and took over a country in chaos...”
Oh, please.
Any Mass. Freepers who can,contact laura@brownforussenate.com to be a republican poll watcher.
It pays $135-$185
You know they’ll pull out all the stops to steal this election.
Good points sunmars
Gorzaloon,
YOu may be “boring” but you have to admit life in Ma. the next few days will be anything but boring.
Specially if Brown wins.
Have fun and keep telling us what is happening 1st hand.
Haha - Dean getting a little payback here. What he says means a lot to the moonbats.
The country wasn't in chaos. That's revisionism.
They had better plan for a security budget and hope it works.And you think I do not speak the truth? Ask yourself why so many Dems are resigning. Theyy are genuinely afraid, and they should be.Obama means to take away individual freedoms and ignore/usurp the constitution. We will not allow that.The DEMS who resign know this and the fear for their own safety, because they know also that Obama is indeed a tyrant, just like Obama's Kenyan cousin, Rial Odinga.
“country in chaos...”
Oh, please.
LOL. Yeah, the author of the piece tries, but couldn’t be objective if her life depended on it.
The media keeps trying to spin the story as “anti-encumbent”, but it’s really about massive rejection of the far-left trajectory of Obama and the democrat majority. Hell’s coming.
I've been a poll watcher in PA for the last 3 general elections, never got paid a dime.
They offered gas money but I told them that I'd settle for bullet replacements for my 357 if I got into a gunfight.
It's illegal to take a gun into a polling place and I'd never do anything illegal.
