You know, I think that this is a great thing that Brown won. I'm from NY so I'm raised to hate Massachussetts, but I gotta say that they are some of the best Americans right there because they let the people running determine their vote instead of their party.

They didn't betray anyone. They had two choices. Brown who, while against healthcare and has some strong conservative values, seemed like a pretty decent politician and ran an excellent campaign. The other was Coakely who FLAT OUT SUCKED. Aside from the fact that she was a democrat, there was no reason that woman should have won. She acted like she was going to be handed the seat and did NOTHING to fight for her job. The people saw one guy who really wanted to be a senator and work hard and another person who was just being a seat filler, and they voted for their state.

No offense, but our government was built on the ideal of states individual opinion. You don't vote for a senator for one bill on a national scale, you vote for a senator to work hard to look out for your state.
