From the Never-Learn File

Fresh with a still-stinging boot print along their posterior after Senator-Elect Scott Brown (R-MA) election one week ago, it seems as though many liberal Democrats are still trying to envision and plan a path by which they can circumvent the normal legislative process and gain passage of their over-reaching Healthcare Deform legislation.  Voices from the kook-left fringe and current party leadership appear unfazed in their calls to force through what voters in Massachusetts (specifically) and nationwide (based on most all current polling) are now shouting that they do not want.
 
To their frustration (-random samplings among the frothing liberal blogosphere are an easy find-), a number of Democrats up for election in moderate-to-conservative districts are increasingly unwilling to continue following their party leaders over this political cliff.  A number of them are publicly stating that they will no vote for some of these back-room, back-door actions to force through legislation that is becoming increasingly difficult to pass through normal processes. 
 
If you are a resident of Arkansas (Sen. Blanche Lincoln & Sen. Mark Pryor) or Nebraska (Sen. Ben Nelson) or Indiana (Sen. Evan Bayh) or Louisiana (Sen. Mary Landreiu) or Connecticut (Sen. Joe Lieberman) or Missouri (Sen. Claire McCaskill), let your Senator know how you feel!  Remind them who you are and for whom they work and (all too soon) to whom they will answer!

Wandering In The Healthcare Wilderness

According to the Politico, Democrats are moving healthcare reform to the backburner and will instead focus on Jobs & Economy.  In the same vein, Reuters is reporting that Democrats are trying to push it through "any way they can".
 
We will continue monitoring the situation, but, after the meandering nature of the SOTU speech last night, it is clear that Democrats are in a state of confusion.  A year from celebrations and assumptions that they would enjoy political control for a long time to come, they are wondering to where their assumed poltiical capital evaporated.  
 
Remember Mr. President: Hope Never Changed Anything!
