With 40% of the ballots counted, FNC is calling the Massachusetts Senate race for Elizabeth Warren.
Alas, Scott Brown is a footnote in American political history.
I cannot say I am surprised. I went to the polls early in the morning. The lines were long and they were blue. Warren’s people have been on the ground for weeks and got out the vote. In the back of my mind, I thought Jamaica Plain isn’t necessarily representative of the rest of Massachusetts. But who the hell am I kidding? The People’s Republic of JP is representative of the Bay State. Brown’s brand of bipartisanship doesn’t sell here.
So Ted Kennedy’s seat is back in Democratic hands.

Counting the Costs of Clintonism
The debacle of this president’s administration is both a cause and a symptom of the decline of American values. Unless Congress impeaches him, that decline will go on unchecked. An eminent jurist surveys the damage and assesses the chances for the recovery of our culture.

We get the government we deserve. When I look at a crowd of Obama supporters...or I look at some of the flakes the Liberals/Statists keep electing...like ?Warren, Pelosi, Reed, et al....the only thing besides a deep sorrow that comes to mind...is the Bar Scene from Star Wars

Jim,
Let's not take it too far. No need to insult scum and villains. :-)

Warren as a US Senator is an example of how far American morality has fallen. On the other hand, Ted Cruz won in Texas. The Senate is going to be a bull pit.

People get the government they deserve. I hope when they can't afford to live there any more they realize the errors of their ways, but I know they won't. Boston has ceased to be really American, which must make the founding fathers cry. John and Samuel Adams probably regret revolting now.
