Money quotes:
"The president also said the same voter anger that swept him into office in 2008 carried Brown into office on a stunning upset victory Tuesday night over heavily favored Democrat Martha Coakley."
"People are angry and they are frustrated. Not just because of what's happened in the last year or two years, but what's happened over the last eight years."
"I think point number two is that it is very important to look at the substance of this package and for the American people to understand that a lot of the fear mongering around this bill isn't true,"
Interesting that the reason we (the electorate) don't support Health Care is because were angry at Bush, Angry because were a bunch of teabagers, are stupid enough to buy into Palins death panels, and just don't know whats in the bill (he has a point there, the bill has been pushed through under the cloak of darkness). Not an ounce of introspection that he Reid and Pelosi have attempted to push this through in a way that has lost the faith of a large portion of the American people along the way.
My last question would be if last night was not a mandate and was simply anger fueled by the last eight years, just like your election, why in the heck did you assume your election was the will of the people mandating you to rebuild large chunks of the US in your image. Sheeesh.
