"Other" should say, "all of the above and more" ! Scott Brown ran a clean campaign and President Obama is learning that the Chicago-style politics just doesn't cut it in the great state of Massachusetts! The people voted for the BEST candidate, and NOT party lines... for once! Now I feel there's hope for the rest of the nation!

I think people are disgusted with 1 party controlling the White House, the House of Representatives and the Senate. The controlling party doesn't even have to pay lip service to the other party.

Obuma gave 411 speeches in his first year. He's all blow and no show. His record in Illinois and the Us Senate doesn't show one thing he ever accomplished. He is one of the worst Presidents we have ever had.
