“It’S Not The ‘Kennedy Seat"

[Winchester]

Certainly polls never manipulate to achieve preconceived notions.

I have very little faith in polls from any camp. Without knowing the questions, the people questioned and the person who intiated the poll, they're simply not dependable.

Unless they agree with me; in which case, they may as well slap them in the Bible.

Actually, Obama and Pelosi had strong disagreements from early on. Reid, I don't think he's capable of disagreeing with
anyone.

Here's an article on a poll taken in Massachusetts after the election which shows why voters went with Brown.

It has more to do with Congress than Obama.

Rolling around
his perfect little ball
no problems in life
no tension at all.

He makes sure
his wife gets plenty
she'll be upset
if the food is linty.

In their stinky hole
all through the night
too full to move
until morning light.

Go to work early
like a good husband should
daydreaming of dinner
isn't life good!

Yup.

Actually, he's not, and this I fault him for.

The Democrats in the house and senate have been ignoring the president and doing their own thing. Remember, Obama's stimulus was about $300 billion, and targeted jobs. By the time Pelosi and the house democrats were done, it was $850 billion. Reid and the Senate democrats scaled it back but added some of their own pork projects, and it came in at around $800. Also, there is no oversight to see where the money is being spent. Again, I fault Obama for this. Here in Massachusetts, the pro-democrat Boston Globe wrote a scathing article of where the stimulus was being spent and how it created zero jobs. Such things like funding Head Start out in Springfield with $250,000. The organization didn't hire one new person, but instead, gave their current staff raises.

That mean old Scott Brown. How dare he get in the way of making this country a Socialist utopia. It's outrageous!

I do see is some saying that Brown has been on the wrong side of the argument, BUT there is hope for him if we pray. He is by far the lesser of two evils and at least there is some hope for him. God bless.

BOSTON — Republican Scott Brown may be taking over Democrat Edward Kennedy's Senate seat but not his desk.

An aide says Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry is having a hissy-fit over getting the mahogany desk because he has nothing better to do with his time and because [quote]"it is not the people's desk, it's the Kennedy desk"[/quote]

Junior Senators usually don't get the former senior senators office. Kerry is right that he now being the senior senator, gets first dibs on Kennedy's office and furniture.

This news story makes Kerry sound like a vulture.

I bet that desk smell of liquor and regret.
