Massachusetts to Democrats: DROP DEAD!

While I will not rehash what we already know tonights election results mean(Healthcare Reform basically dead for now) what we witnessed tonight was a repudiation of democrats taking people for granted and not understanding the one basic rule of politics:

People vote with their wallets.

Sadly the euphoria that has been taking place on the left(and it’s ever increasing puke fest at MSNBC) has fallen on deaf ears.

I don’t like to say "I told you so", but the Dems dropped the ball all year in trying to decide what was important to us. All the while hoping that the "New Camelot" would surface for air as the common man continues to drown.

I guess what really put in perspective(for me anyway) just how completely out of touch the Democrats are became as clear as day when I saw on Monday that MSNBC was going to place almost its entire coverage on one Senate election when in fact the typical news viewer has been gripped by what was going on in Haiti. Not to mention the absolute awful leadership that the United States has  shown in the relief efforts. I’m sorry but you have got to risk some injury and even some rioting in an effort to gert fiood to a hungry nation before worrying about putting military boots on the ground. The response has been sad. When Israel can fly in two 747’s with a full compliment of mobile Hopitals and support staff in two days from 5000 miles away and we can’t seem to get seem to get anything off the Tarmac in Port au Prince but Hillary Clinton’s fat ass for a press conference from 700 miles away. something is fucking wronmg with this picture.

Thats all I will say about Haiti other than while the Major News Organizations (CNN, BBC) were and remain outstanding in their coverage of the carnage and real time efforts to report the disaster, The NBC Anchor Team has remained for the most part at the airport with their standard dockers and button down shirts on looking like they are scared to see a hungry person…I find their coverage of the whole thing terrible.

It harkens back to  just what kind of people are currently taking us all for granted. The fact that The Dems had to keep this seat and pissed it away is a testament to their arrogance. Arrogance once reserved for the Republicans. I would have been more than happy to give them the benefit of the doubt, as skeptical as I am, but they have wated any political capital they had and have blown their good will for the midterm elections.

As a result if this, the Dems are going to take a beating in the midterms, Obama looks like a one term President after 12 months in office and his propaganda arm (MSNBC) is a clueless as ever. The coverage from whatever bar they are at in Boston just shows what a lame lineup of softballers they are. The keep pushing the crawl at the bottom of the screen that the election result was a stunning upset in a Blue State. TO WHO? When you take people for granted they tend to get pissed off. When you talk over their heads with certainty about something to people who are out of work,m the get pissed off. when you play people for fools, they get angry.

I mean come on, how more pedantic can it be when you have Maddow ande Matthews in a bar with sweaters on. That is about as alien a concept to theiose two as you can get.

right down the line…from Howard Dean to Keith Olbermann….You weren’t fooling anyone. You all made a concerted effort to tell us what we needed instead of asking us, and it bit you in the ass.
