That was too easy...
so lemme get this straight.. poorly funded and irresponsible (arrogant "i've got this in the bag" attitude) campaigning, Diebold voting machines, no exit poll safeguard, ballot irregularities....and an EARLY CONCESSION...?


Who paid who off? seriously...
Obviously the whole premise of Democracy is a farce - Plutocracy and Corporate Heirarchy seems more & more likely

Democrat, rethug....no matter, still Bought & Paid for...ALL of Them!!


(I think the time is coming when we will be voting with torches & pitchforks... if unemployment stays where it is at, the wars continue to suck us dry, wall st continues to get money hand over fist...and the rest of us have to fend for ourselves and be HAPPY that something "called" healthcare reform is being crafted to keep us quiet.... not gonna work forever)

3. well i am not convinced that it wasn't an "inside" job
and no... I don't think the can be blamed on the voters, I think the wierdneses listed above SHOULD be cause for concern I don;t think it is all Coakley's fault, though she was not a very strong candidate either (but who could be compared to Teddy?)

But the whole thing is beginning to look like it doesn't matter who is in "majority" anyways...they are ALL bought by the Big Dollars.
So what do we do anyway? how to take back our respective lives from the corporations and banks?

I don't even know or have many answers. I also don't know the finer points of this race...but my tinfoil is getting hot, that's for sure....
