I listened to a pollster being interviewed today on the radio by Ed Schultz. He polled people in MA who voted for Obama and for Brown. The majority voted for Brown because they didn't like the health care bill currently in Congress. They wanted Single Payer or public option.
Very revealing, especially since it was the Independents who voted in Obama and also Brown.
Neither party is listening to them so we are doomed to repeat this over and over until someone finally listens and acts. I really don't expect to see it in my lifetime.
