People seem to want reform but no one wants to compromise – no one wants to lose what they have – no one wants to make a sacrifice for the future of healthcare. Things are bad in health care and they continue to get worse, but maybe its not worth making an effort to change until we absolutely HAVE to?

That just doesn’t seem right. However, I would like to see more cooperation from the Republicans.

Especially if the Dems push this through without seating Brown. There will be heck to pay at the poles. The dems need to realize that the majority of Americans are not behind a governmental takeover of the health care system or the major deficits they are creating.

They need to come back mid center and quit catering to the extremists in their party and hopefully one day the Republicans will do the same.

Brown ran a good campaign and Coakley ran a weak one, but I also think this could be a sign of a general backlash against the Democratic party.

I think it was a signal to the democrat to get her head out of her posterior and talk to people. She was certainly an awful candidate.
