Funny you bring that up, as the talk today is the ultra-liberals wanting Washington to know "this is a referendum on your lack of aggression when we voted you in for change", while the right is saying, "it's economics".

But the folks in Mass are saying it was all just local politics, she wasn't liked nor endorsed by the Dem party in Mass, the machine didn't rev up the call centers for her, etc.

Unfortunately no exit polls this election to shed more accurate light.

As an aside: we've put with with alot regarding our politicians. Nixon, Haldeman, Ehrlichmann and their lying over Watergate. Clinton and his wandering pants zipper. The entire "C Street" Christians need to takeover government crew.

I cannot vote for a politician, however, who says, laughing, in public, "We can do that!" to a suggestion that his opponent get a curling iron shoved up her azz.

It's one thing to find out after you elect them that your politicians are ugly on a moral level. It's another to have them be proud of it and flaunt it as a reason for you to vote for them. I find it quite scary when voters deliberately choose that.
