Happier Days

Finally, some hope that the Obama train can be slowed, if not derailed. Obamacare may be dead. If it is not dead, it is at the least pared down. Now don't get me wrong. I have no illusions that the House may still try a vote on the already passed Senate version. The bottom line is that they absolutely cannot be trusted. Today, in the wake of the Republican victory in Massachusetts, they are talking like they will not try to bring it to a vote anywhere, that it needs to be reworked, pared down, etc. The president has even said in an interview that they should not try to ram anything through in light of this loss of their super majority in the Senate. DO NO TRUST THEM. We must stay vigilant. They have proven with their backroom maneuvering and dealing and general lying that they will do what ever it takes to get their agenda passed. That, I do not believe, has been changed by this election. All that can truly be said is that the dynamics are now different. So watch out for a change in their tactics, not their agenda.
But having said all that, I am optimistic for the first time since last January 20th.
