BOSTON – In an epic upset in liberal Massachusetts, Republican Scott Brown rode a wave of voter anger to defeat Democrat Martha Coakley in a U.S. Senate election Tuesday that left President Barack Obama's health care overhaul in doubt and marred the end of his first year in office.

I just sent a quick email to my Senator here in Colorado. Mike Benett. My simple little message read: “Just an FYI...Scott Brown WON!!”

I suspect the ‘rats don’t have an effective vote stealing squad in MA simply because they’ve never needed one there before.

Once they saw that they were slipping it was too late to get their game going.

You betcha it’s just the beginning! They’re not going to like it because these arrogant sunzabees never believed that we the people could actually stand up and kick them in the place where it hurts. Well, guess what...

One more: can anyone photoshop the one of Truman holding the newspaper which reads "Dewey Defeats Truman"??

Make the headline anything you want.

Cheers!

Okay....It is now apparent that Scott Brown will be the next Senator from the state of Massachusetts. It is my belief that FreeRepublic played no little role in this earth-shaking event. It is now time to send another message to those who would take away our freedoms, tax us into poverty and force socialism on us all.

Let's dig down deep tonight and do what we can to end this FReepathon. Let's make sure that the most popular conservative website continues long and strong.

Thank you!

and GOP insiders everywhere are probably slightly uncomfortable as a result.

Michael Steele was no where to be found in any of this. Worthless POS.
