Thin Skin and Thick Skulls

The Democrats just don't get it. People want MORE action, not less. They want extreme, decisive solutions.

I believe Obama did have to dance that dance in order to get enough votes to pass some version of health care, but only because the senators and congressmen were too stupid and frightened to recognize that -- Republican rhetoric aside -- the people wanted them to do MORE.

That's what Obama's election was about. And that's what this new guy's election -- or more properly, Madam Coakley's repudiation -- is about.

But the Dems will take the wrong message. And do less.

Or do things wrong and seem complicit with the powers that have always been.
