It will be a replay of 1980 when Carter-Kennedy tore the Dems apart.  If the Dems lose more than 30 Seats in the House and more than 5 in the Senate on 2010, I predict Hillary will bolt.

In the spirit of speculation (wild ass guesses  :p) it never did make any sense to me why she gave up her Senate seat for the Secretary of State position.
Perhaps a memory of 94 and she didn`t want to be a part of Os far left legislative agenda and the baggage that appears to be gathering?

Hi,

Good point, I never thought of that.  At least she has not had to daily defend the undefendable, nor does she have a voting history to be thrown in her face down the road.

thanks,

Not that lying isn't one of Hillary's features, or indeed any politician, but she has made the statement she's not gunning for the presidency any more. I just can't see her returning to the Congress in any capacity.

And I truly thought she'd be out of Lord Zero's cabinet by now.

By far the best post I have seen yet.  Why you may ask?  Normally I like to test drive before I buy, but with politicians we get sold hype then told to test drive after the buy.  

Time will be the test.  I count this event as nothing more than a technical victory.  The fact it was in Mass is substantial but still proves nothing solid as of yet.  We need to get rid of a lot of D's and Rinos at the slaughterhouse and one pig being served up for dinner just is not enough.  I want the damn Tbone steak.

Yeah, I'm glad Scotty (as I call him) won, but he's not much of a Conservative. We just need to keep an eye on the guy! Anyway though, at least he's against Obama Care, and he's going to vote against it. That's a start!

How is Brown "not much of a conservative"?
Our people look for a cause to believe in. Is it a third party we need, or is it a new and revitalized second party, raising a banner of no pale pastels, but bold colors which make it unmistakably clear where we stand on all of the issues troubling the people?***Ronald Reagan

He's from Mass, like our politicians in NY, they are not very conservative. But I'll take him any day.
He does believe in gov run heath care, he just doesn't want this version and he knows that Obama is spending way too much, so he's not going to vote for it. But don't kid yourself, he's not a really big conservative. At least he's not a socialist either.

Either way, it was a vote against Obama and the progressives!

People seem to forget that a Texas conservative <> Mass. Conservative. Brown would be considered quite liberal in the true conservative areas of this country. Brown does have some socialistic tendencies - he supported Mass' healthcare reform. Be dilligent in watching him, as with all politicians.

That's right, we need to watch all of our politicians...don't forget that it was the republicans that sold us conservatives up the river and started us down this path of government bailouts (gov ownership in the private sector) which is as socialist as it gets.

Watch them all!!
