Ok, nothing like jumping straight in with controversy. If you’re not aware, there is a special election coming up for the Senate seat of the late Ted Kennedy.
Interesting if you are tracking such items. If Scott Brown the Republican wins, it will dramatically change the balance of power in the Senate, and perhaps the course of history for the United States.
My friend Dennis Hayes (created the Modem- “Hayes Compatible”- if you’ve heard of that). He sent a note out imploring people to follow and get out to vote.
I’ve copied his note below. Regardless of your political affiliation, this is something indeed worth tracking.
From Dennis Hayes-
“Dear Friends,
Please forward this message to all of your friends that live in Massachusetts.
I don’t care whether you are a Democrat, Independent or Republican, I hope you will go and take everyone you know to vote next week for Scott Brown so there is a chance to stop the Train Wreck in Congress with the socialists in control of the government and reset the health care reform so we can solve the problems and get something that will actually work. I can only hope that you and the people in Massachusetts are as angry and frustrated with the crap being rushed through Congress, without transparency or bipartisan input, that is not solving any of the problems that it is supposed to and spending trillions more that the government cannot afford. I believe we need Health insurance reform but everything about the current bill in Congress is a travesty and wrong for all of us. Brown is refreshing as a person from Massachusetts; on health care, trials of terrorists and independent thinking I have to give him an A+. Good luck, we are counting on all of you to bring some real change and sanity back to Congress.
The rest of the country needs you to take action and be real Patriots.”
