So, a Republican won in Massachusetts. I, as a liberal with a capital L, is so pleased. For the past year the Democrats have squandered their time doing nothing but fighting amongst themselves and, as much as I want a liberal agenda put into policy they weren't doing what they said they would.
The Republicans are just better politicians. Democratic politicians are so worried about shoving policy through when they shouldn't have be. The Republicans don't seem to have the same problem when they come into the majority. They are more than willing to ram anything they want into law without worrying about the fallback because regardless of the fallback it is now law. Criticize them all you want but at least they know what they want to do and they actually get it done.
The Democrats are pussies. They have waited for so long, or so it seems to me, to be the majority but when we finally are the very policies that were won on couldn't seem to make it past the vote. It's like they are still in high school looking to be accepted by talking the talk but can't seem to put on their pants and walk it.
If this loss in Massachusetts doesn't make them take a good hard look at what they want to accomplish they are going to lose big in the fall with nothing to show for the majority they once had. Even as I write this, it may already be too late.
