The Democrats are fucked.

And you didn't need me to tell you that they are fucked. Perhaps the most noticeable thing about the Massachusetts senatorial election aside from the fact that it bodes like a fortune teller flipping a grim reaper-illustrated card out of a deck IS THAT it represents the fourth time that Obama has attempted to push a candidate to victory and failed utterly.
People are trying to explain the factors that contributed to Brown's victory: Coakley was very lazy, Brown is handsome, Massachusetts voters don't care about a national health care plan as much as they care about jobs, etc.
I think the one thing that stands out to me most is something that MSNBC's Chuck Todd said: Obama's "change" has not been delivered. People are not better off than they were two years ago. Call it "impatience;" call it "practicality." I call it "fact."
