Harry Reid could appear in Blackface…

…and this president would forgive him, he has no choice.

In my opinion it all comes down to Obamacare, if this was 3 months ago or even two months ago they might have been able to ease him back, but right now the negotiations on are critical. If they want to get this in before the Massachusetts elections they can’t elbow Reid aside.

This president has bet the farm on healthcare and he can’t afford to take any chances.

I think Harry Reid figured this out and played this perfectly, I think honestly that Obamacare is so important that if he said what Bill Clinton is alleged to have said he would still be forgiven.

Timing is everything and this is the one time in the last year that Reid’s timing has been perfect.

Update (sorta): I was going to schedule this post for around noon since I’ll be at a funeral mass/etc but Andrea Mitchel just made this point on Morning Joe so I’m posting it now.

My mother has been under the weather so I gave her a call about a ride to mass and to offer to take her to city hall to change that voter registration she was talking about. She is apparently ok because he is back behind the wheel and this week she has already visited City hall and ended her 65 years of association with the democratic party and re-registered as a RepublicanUnenrolled as she promised.

Her first presidential vote was for Harry S. Truman. If the democratic party was still the party of Harry I might be voting that way too.

Her first vote asfor a Republican will be for Scott Brown!

Update: It turns out she actually registered as “Unenrolled” (that is what independents are called in Massachusetts)

Checking the ground for Brown

Today I’m going to be meeting a friend of mine at the local coffee shop for lunch. They have first rate fish so it will be hopping a bit.

After lunch I’ll hit Romano’s to pick up something to cook for supper.

It is a great opportunity to make an experiment, I’m going to bring up the Brown Race and see what people say.

Let’s see if there is any excitement. His abortion stance certainly doesn’t excite me…

…but the Boston Phoenix must be actually scared because they are trying to paint him as anti-abortion…I wish.

Update: The Right Wing Gaming room left a comment on my earlier post concerning the subject. He lives in a different part of the state so It will be very interesting to see if he is hearing different things than I am. How about it fellow gamer, what are you hearing up in the Northeast corner of the state?

A: Don’t feel bad I couldn’t either.

Q: Can you tell me the difference between the women in this video:

and Clare McCaskall’s declaration of her willingness to die politically for her Master?
