You should see the smile on my face.BOSTON – In an epic upset in liberal Massachusetts, Republican Scott Brown rode a wave of voter anger to defeat Democrat Martha Coakley in a U.S. Senate election Tuesday that left President Barack Obama's health care overhaul in doubt and marred the end of his first year in office.
The loss by the once-favored Coakley for the seat that the late Sen. Edward M. Kennedy held for nearly half a century signaled big political problems for the president's party this fall when House, Senate and gubernatorial candidates are on the ballot nationwide.
More immediately, Brown will become the 41st Republican in the 100-member Senate, which could allow the GOP to block the president's health care legislation and the rest of Obama's agenda. Democrats needed Coakley to win for a 60th vote to thwart Republican filibusters.
Check this out. Democratic chicanery:
Here’s the latest disgraceful move from the Coakley Campaign.
While she was out holding a campaign rally at the Martin Luther King Breakfast yesterday, her campaign staff was preparing a press release blaming Republicans of voter fraud.
Via Red Mass Group- Notice the date is from yesterday Monday January 18.
Harry Reid said he would seat Brown this week.

Gotta tell ya, this woman was too dumb to win a seat on a bus, let alone this election. Massachusetts has never seen such an epic clusterf*** in its entire political history and that is saying something.
Going to try to get some sleep, if I can stop giggling gleefully long enough.
hey pastorius, how 1940's mr. smith would it be, if he literally drove his pickup to washington.
could you imagine the concrete visual and cultural impact it would have if he actually drove that pickup?
You know, Rumcrook, I wouldn't be surprised if he did just that..
Good prediction.
the best line in his accdeptance speach,
our constitution is here for us.
not to grant rights and privileges to our enemies who wish to do us harm.
giving new rights to terrorists is harmfull to our country
I hope he gets there and rains onthier parade!
Concord Hymn
Ralph Waldo Emerson
By the rude bridge that arched the flood,
Their flag to April’s breeze unfurled,
Here once the embattled farmers stood,
And fired the shot heard round the world.
The foe long since in silence slept;
Alike the conqueror silent sleeps;
And Time the ruined bridge has swept
Down the dark stream which seaward creeps.
On this green bank, by this soft stream,
We set to-day a votive stone;
That memory may their deed redeem,
When, like our sires, our sons are gone.
Spirit, that made those heroes dare,
To die, and leave their children free,
Bid Time and Nature gently spare
The shaft we raise to them and thee.
The Complete Works of Ralph Waldo Emerson (1904),
Upsets abound . . .it is a very good day!
