Why did Scott Brown win?

[Mike McKinzie]

First off, I really want to keep this civil, intelligent discourse, please. Next, prove what you say, if possible.

To me, there are three main reasons that Scott Brown won.

1. He ran a better campaign. He ran an "Obama Like" campaign.

2. People do not want the health care reform bill that is currently being bantered around Washington. Most polls show a 60-70% AGAINST the current bill.

3. People are really beginning to see that the government cannot create jobs nearly as efficiently as the Private Sector.

There are a myriad of other reasons, but let's face it, Obama's honeymoon is OVER. The Dems honeymoon is over. NOW, they have to listen to THE PEOPLE.

I think he won because the dems didn't have enuff time to DESTROY Brown. 30 days ago, Brown was behind 30 points! Dems didn't send out their attack dogs. By the time they knew they were in trouble. all they could muster was a lame ad and his posing in a mag in 1982!!!
The dems have to win by attacking. They lose on substance and are way out of touch with the American people. Obama is even weaker now than a month ago. He might have even hurt the vote in Mass by showing up according to some polls! The special deals hurt the dems in all the recent races
1.La purchase
2. Nebraska bribe
3. union special deal
4. secret bills, not transparent as promised
5. passing bills that were never read
6. spending like drunken sailors
None of these items helped Marsha, nor the last couple elections for governors. If the dems continue their pulling the strings behind the curtain, they'll keep getting beaten. Rich
