Yes we knew all along Brown would win, did not need a crystal ball to know this. There was a clear strong message that is being sent to Washington, the President, the Administration, enough already, we don't want your kind of business any more. Great speech by Brown, my democratic friends called tonight, and said, after his speech, he should run for President. They are happy they live in MASS. No more bull, back to what the People want and not this thug Mob like presense in the White House.
He's voting in the US Senate, not the Massachusetts state house. What he votes on affects each and every citizen in this country.
Look at how the conservatives all blame Congress since 2006, when the Dems were in the majority, even though a Repub was president. You're damn right a senator is important!
The Dems had a year to pass that bill, they could not get the job done where is the anger at them for screwing it up?
You are missing the point. I will continue to hold Obama accountable and voice my opinion when I think he screws up because is effects me. What Brown does will not. I don't live in Mass so he can screw up that state all he wants and it effects me not one bit. I find it funny how people get so pissed about a state Senator being elected when they don't even live there. Makes no sense at all.
You really need to read up on how the federal government works. He will probably take Massachusetts' interests into consideration when he votes, but he will be voting for federal issues. You may find this funny, but the joke is on you if you think he has no bearing on your life.

I think that is a little dramatic. It could save his Presidency. Maybe now he would actually do what he promised. Have the health care debate in a public transparent way without the horse trading that has been the hallmark of this thing and people may get on board.

Coming from KevK...this is the concession speech of the evening. Could we quote you on that?
Actually, KevK has been an Obama supporter for some time. He's just missing out on some refreshing kool-aid lately!
