I am SO happy of the Senate election results in Massachussets! Republican candidate Scott Brown defeated Martha Coakley 52 to 47. First and foremost, I would like to say that I am thrilled that Massachussets is sick of playing politics as usual. One of the most blue states in America set its politicking aside because they already know how bad government-run health care is in their own state.
Tonight was not just "another election." Tonight was a victory for economic freedom. What has been prevented is an overall take-over of our say in our health care decisions, which, if you think about it, covers quite a lot. Even with economic common sense taken into consideration, it even goes beyond that. This has been yet another election showing the people's frustrations and dissapointments (that might be an understatement, but let's go with that for now) of the Democratic Party, and particularly Obama. It is a sign that in all likelihood, the Democrats in Congress are going to lose a substantial amount of seats. But if the GOP wants to take advantage of this in the long-run, they will need to listen to the angst of the Tea Party Movement. The average American is sick and tired of Big Government, and many of us want to see change. If the Republican Party can return to its values of less government and lower taxation, we would see an era of Republican-dominated government for at least the next four presidential terms. But the Republicans first need to stop playing politics like usual before there can be real hope and change in America.
