keepthefaith Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Hmmm...Reid just said Brown will be seated when paperwork is done.....being discussed on Fox News now. Means it may take some time to seat him. I'm expecting a bunch of delays in the process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLZFAN4LIFE Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Actually it looks like CNN is going to switch to wall-to-wall Haiti coverage, pretending that this election never happened! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledInIllinois Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 I'm expecting a bunch of delays in the process. Why? Brown won fair and square it appears. Ya, maybe I would have liked to see HC pushed through... But at what cost to other agendas that Coakley supports? The right guy won. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 They can't be crazy enough to try and pass this before he is seated. Wanna bet they try? And Scott Brown said that if he wins clearly, he'll be on a plane to DC on Wednesday morning demanding to be seated in the Senate. I'm hoping the hue and cry from him and the Republicans gets Americans outraged at any further deception and chicanery from this crooked government.

RkFast Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Id be shocked if they went the delay route. Even a ton of Democrats consider that political suicide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As proven tonight, it gets you far! I know you want to celebrate, but your side is just as guilty. Let's just be happy the process worked for once (in a terribly obscure way).

Booster4324 Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 I agree......................... Let's look at it this way, it might be a step in the right direction. Most of us are socially liberal and fiscally conservative. Maybe some will wake up and realize they feel the same and can actually influence politics (I did mention I ten to be optimistic right?)

BillsNYC Posted January 20, 2010 Author Share Posted January 20, 2010 Well, Reid may delay it long enough to get the HC vote passed....... Another point, NJ and VA can be argued it was about local politics...THIS can only be attributed to DC, and anybody that argues different is lying.

BillsNYC Posted January 20, 2010 Author Share Posted January 20, 2010 http://www.politico.com/arena/ This is a great read, live reactions from both sides. Most Dems are saying this was caused by DC....but this one stood out to me, and is EXACTLY what libs are going to preach all week: Yousef Munayyer Exec. Dir., The Jerusalem Fund : I wouldn't interpret this as a message about Washington or health care. Coakley came off as more "out of touch" with the electorate than most candidates. Her calling Curt Schilling a Yankee fan was a good example. What no one accounted for was all the Yankee fans who crossed the state lines to campaign for Brown hoping to distance themselves from Coakley's sacreligeous baseball comment. Also, why should Massachusetts independents support a health care bill that would increase spending when they already have universal health care in the state? The incentives to vote for Coakley quickly dissapated. Make no mistake, the effect of this election may have national reverbirations, but the causes were entirely local.

ExiledInIllinois Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Pssst Bill, even the liberals that responded are saying this is a good thing. Exactly. Sure ramming it down 60-40 works... There is sure to be backlash. It is better if they work a little harder for what they want. Only good can come from this. The other way, you can get good (if the HC plans actually works)... Or real bad. Something has to be said about reaching across the aisle. Anyway Coakley is a wacko... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KD in CA Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Nice to see this happening in a left wing stronghold or else they would be full of explanation for how it wasn't a rebuke of Obama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
