Well-qualified, eh? A man with quite a temper. 225 vote edge, but curiously, there is no screaming by Republicans as was the case among Dems in Gore vs. Bush.
Good going, young voters. A filibuster-proof majority. Total one-party rule. Checks and balances? Pfft. Soon, the Supreme Court will be in the fold.
Rather lost in the static is Sen. Baucus' insertion of taxarion of health benefits - except for union members. That dovetails nicely with that piece of legislation out there, that strips away the secret ballot for certifying a union. Naturally, if union members are not taxed for benefits...a powerful inducement for unionization is there. A method of forming a loyal praetorian guard. Obama opposed the taxation of benefits, used it against McCain in the run-up to election. Now, he says that he will wait on the wisdom of Congress. Whatta guy...
Add in the "Fairness" doctrine resurgence. Last I read about that, the end-around is to establish "community boards" that will decide what will be broadcast...under pain of losing the broadcast license. Fox News as an alternative to the others that slavishly praise Dear Leader will be silenced sooner or later. There is no end of folks that brainlessly follow the popular pap and call them Foxsnooze, so their demise won't raise a bleep. Talk radio will be silenced.
It's inexorable...
