What will it take for the people of Massachusetts to learn?? How about a state mandated health program created in 2006 that did JACK SHIT but raise premiums across the board for the working family in that state. That was the biggest factor in Browns win.....and the fact that these delicate flowers insist on giving AMERICAN RIGHTS to enemy combatants caught on the battlefield fighting OUT OF UNIFORM......in the real world....like Germany in the 1940's.....nazi insurgents caught fighting in civilian clothing were lined up and shot on the spot, by the hundreds. Obama will be forced by the people to lead from the middle or head out to Cali for a lecture tour in 2012.
