Starting with Ted Kennedy's old seat being taken over by a republican (which no one thought would happen).

It looks like the establishment (incumbents) on both sides are going to take some big hits.
The majority was ignored with the big take overs of Auto makers, Banks the bailouts and a healthcare system that will cost (WORKING PEOPLE) much more then it costs now.
While the majority was ignored it is now easy to see that they do truly want CHANGE.  And this election cycle as seen by wins in MA NJ PA KY is going to stir things up.

President Oboma preached change but wanted to keep all there same players in the game, as the saying goes you cant teach an old dog new tricks.  Although Spector tried to learn the new tricks he was sent packing.

it appears and is kinda strange to watch that anyone President Oboma seems to back is being defeated.  Them crazy hostile astro turf idiots with a trend that wont last and who are racists bigots with no understanding of the world they live in.  You know them as bible clenching gun totting uneducated fools.  The Tea Party or as so many Dem's like to call them the Tea Baggers actually do have some pull as is evident.

I for one cant stand to see Our President bend down to our enemies while ignoring our allies.  I cant stand that our attorney general is talking about suing AZ for taking a stance against (ILLEGAL) immigrants. while never even reading the new law which is only (10) pages long same as with Neapolitan.  They are against something they haven't even read. Which makes them both look like fools.

I could go on but I'm just a silly tea bagger, who would listen.  I can HOPE for CHANGE.

Agree with you guys 100%. We did want change, but not that type of change, and I will be amazed if Obama makes it thru 4 years. And happy if he does not. However, I dont really want to be stuck with Nancy Pelosi or Harry Reid. We will see if the voters have gotten a little smarter and vote all of their happy butts out of office.!!!
