The Massachusetts Meltdown


Good morning, readers. Hope you didn’t party too hard last night. If you went to bed early (as opposed to those of us who never went to sleep!), you can catch up on all the election live-blogging fun here. My syndicated column today dissects the twin meltdowns of Bay State and Beltway Democrats. But even with Scott “41!” Brown’s victory, the battle over Demcare has only just begun. The health care takeover-peddlers are looking for a back-up plan. If they can’t get their full “public option” Trojan Horse through the gates, they’ll settle for Trojan Ponies.

In “Paul Revere’s Ride,” Henry Wadsworth Longfellow wrote of “the muster of men at the barrack door.” Today, it’s the muster of men at Barack’s door who must be met with “a cry of defiance, and not of fear.” The nutroots are cranking up the pressure on congressional liberals to cling to the most radical form of Demcare and “fight harder for change.” What part of Coakley/Obama’s epic fail doesn’t the party in power understand?

Tea Party activists must stay vigilant and crank it up even louder to warn of the coming big government perils.

Side note: At a church pulpit on Sunday, President Obama declared that Demcare’s passage would be “a victory for dignity and decency, and for our common humanity.” Since the voters of Massachusetts effectively killed Obama’s plans to ram the bribe-laden Demcare package down taxpayers’ throats, will he now declare them all enemies of dignity, decency, and common humanity who are spitefully flipping the late Ted Kennedy the bird?

Oh, wait. Garrison Keillor and Roger Ebert already did it for him.
