Latest poll results for the vacant Senate seat held by the late Sen. Edward Kennedy.


®Scott Brown 50%
(D)Martha Coakly 46%

This election was formerly viewed as a cakewalk for the democratic party. Ms. Coakley was Teddy's hand picked successor. Does this not prove America's blatant disgust with the democratic party and their underhanded "transparent" policies and tactics?

It's the economy, stupid. Every cycle proponents of both parties crow and crow about a "mandate" and the like when they win. Both parties mistake winning elections 52% to 48% (or less) for some sort of "big sign." I, for one, get tired of politicians talking always about "what the American people want," as if "the American people" is a monolithic mass, instead of a diverse group.
