Now the big question is: Do you think the Dems in DC will get the hint that the people aren't too happy with what they're doing, especially with Obama Care?

I wonder if health care does pass, if the rallying cry will be "Don't Blame Me--I'm From Massachusetts."

For those with some (a lot???) of grey in your hair, you may remember bumper stickers with this slogan popping up in the wake of the Watergate break-in and Nixon's subsequent resignation.

It was in response to the fact that Massachusetts was the only state in the nation that Nixon did not carry in the 1972 Presidential election.

I guess we've come full circle.

It's time for the promises made before the election to be carried out and stop putting it to the middleclass. This was a warning of what November could look like.
