Next time I have a drink of adult beverages, I'll make a toast to the crew of the USS Massachusetts (BB Class) who beat down the Vichy French battleship Jean Bart which was threatening our GIâs landing in North Africa.

In fact tonight on MSNBC Rachael Maddow took issue with Matthews assumption that something went wrong with the Democrat party and started an argument with him about it (a classic moment.) Anyone have a tape of this "man to man" argument?

Cannot wait to see the look on Obama’s face today now that the former “Kennedy seat” has been returned to the MA PEOPLE. :)

I dont think he will try to compromise at all. He is too vindictive. He will want to get even. I think its gonna get really nasty. He is about due for a humongous meltdown...and it just might be his undoing because he is going to try and force his will on reluctant dems, but even they know now, the emperor has no clothes. So the more they resist him, the worse it will get

To: OldEagle
You are correct. It IS only the beginning. There are years of hard work ahead to undo the damage done to this country since 1932.
But at least, for right now, today, there is a chance it can be undone. We shall see.
Good gosh. I just cannot even gloat.

To: nutmeg
WAAAAAYYYY too early to celebrate and declare Obamacare "dead." The Dems, like Hitler at the Battle of the Bulge, have one more major offensive left in them---they can choose to try for a 51-vote on Obamacare; or they can regroup for cap and tax; or they can try amnesty, where a few Republicans will help 'em out. The latter two would be bright moves, but these guys have been "cut" to use boxing lingo and are angry, and I suspect they will try one last time to force through Obamacare.
The good news is that it will be the kiss of death in the fall. I don't see how we get back control of the Senate, and certainly nowhere close to the 2/3 that will be needed to repeal this garbage, but I can see us re-taking the House now.

WAAAAAYYYY too early to celebrate and declare Obamacare "dead."I 100% agree. Now is not the time to start wagging our tongues while saying "nyah nyah." Now is the time to redouble our efforts, to call, write, email, fax--even visit or march on--all those congresscritters. Use this election as an abject lesson of the populace's discontent with how they in Congress do business, but do NOT rest here.
Keep pushing forward!

Option X is to pass a bill that contains vague language and then let the administrative agencies fill in the specifics.
To: workerbee
You can rest assured that the GOP will NOT play this right. With the present leadership, the GOP would fu*k up a one car funeral.
To: sickoflibs
Let's not get too happy we still have plenty of work to do in the House and Senate. The progressives are still on the march. Congrats to the people of the Bay State the Scott Heard Round the World!!!. Take time to celebrate and keep up the good work.

To: ding_dong_daddy_from_dumas
I think no conservative from Massachusetts (moderate or otherwise) has been elected in my lifetime. I’m 55. This spells trouble for Obama. I predict health care is dead, and many D C Dims will jump ship, and vote against ObamaMao policies.

With their arrogance, special interest kowtowing, bribes and payoffs, and lack of transparency, Democrats have poisoned this bill. It’s toxic waste right now and nobody wants to go near it.
I do believe that Obama has managed to soar above the fray by keeping out of it and that Pelosi and Reid will bear the full blame for this debacle.

The turn around from November 2008 is really amazing. I thought it take 4 years for the middle of the road people to wake up.
But just over a year later they have turned strongly against Obama’s radical agenda.
I have much more hope now that we can hold this nation together.
To: CaliforniaCon
How much more does the left wish to enrage the majority??? Do any of them want to keep their jobs? Unfortunately many, like Reid and Pelosi have all but expressed that they are willing to lose their positions in order to get this through. They apparently see it as a positive legacy that they will be remembered by history for. Personally, I see that misndset as being the same as a suicide bomber. They don't care what happens to them so long as they reach their goal.

He says he is going to "do something" about the 10% (official) unemployment, but it seems to be getting harder to sell Keysian solutions (and corrupt ones at that) to the people.
I wonder how Brown and other "moderate" senate Rs will vote on the next Obama Porkulus.

It ain’t over. Saul Alinsky’s tactics are in play here. They only need 51 senators and 218 Houseys. They know they have only 4 years to do this thing. They were expecting this. Alinsky has a specific plan for this. It will intensify. I doubt it will be solved without blood. They are not scared of voters.
