Apocalypse Tuesday

The sky fell Tuesday when soft-core porn model (kidding) cum politician Mark Brown beat Martha Coakley, heir apparent to Ted Kennedy for his Senate seat, or so it seams she thought. Now, the Democrats no longer have their filibuster proof 60 seat majority and, since the Republicans promise to be as obstructionist as possible, Democrats are beside themselves. Obama repopulated his populist repertoire with another threat to punish banks or bankers. The DJIA rightfully finished the week in a free-fall. And everything had just been going so well. Maybe floating the idea of national health care before anyone felt the warm breeze of economic recovery after the winter chill of our worst recession wasn't such a good idea after all.
