The American people WANT to be saved from the lobbyists. It is up to the Democrats and President Obama to achieve that. If you ask me? About Massachusetts? I think the voters in the SUBURBS and RURAL AREAS were deceived into believing Brown actually cares about their issues. He wouldn't be against health care reform if he did !

...Nevadans are sounding off on what's going on in Washington D.C. (click title to entry - thank you)
Most of the people Channel 2 News spoke with say they favor some sort of healthcare plan for everyone. But, they add, they think the bill is getting watered down to appease both parties.
Donna March lives in Fallon and says, "I was hopeful at first. But, I think they will have to make a lot of concessions in order to move that through."
The House and Senate passed separate versions of the Healthcare Bill last year.
But, they have to agree on a final version before it goes to President Obama.
"Obviously, Obama is going to try and make the Democrats and Republicans work together," says Jim Benesche of Reno.
Others, like Nate Teel think universal healthcare is a bad idea and it should be up to the individuals to figure out how to provide their own health coverage.
"My wife and I are both in school. We don't make a ton of money but, we manage to buy healthcare monthly," Teel says.
Some of your friends, neighbors and co-workers say it doesn't matter how it's accomplished, healthcare reform has to happen in our country....
