How this White House interpret, spins and acts on the result of the Massachusetts Senate race
will reveal exactly what their agenda is and where their loyalties lie.
The Coakley/Brown result can be interpreted in numerous ways. Brown's win can be used to justify many political
agendas; and it can also be used to attack or discredit other political ideals.
Just like a Rorschach inkblot--what the beholder "see" reveals a great deal.
How the White House uses this result--will reveal in very certain terms--exactly what this White House is made of
and what kind of Democrats these people are.
The White House can do one of two things: 1.) Suggest that the election outcome was a rejection of liberalism,
healthcare reform and larger government--and proceed to move even farther right and reject reform. 2.) Suggest that this election
outcome was a rejection of: Corporatism, center/center right policies and the non-reform healthcare bill that kow
tows to insurance companies.
The White House can use the Brown win to justify and legitimize where they now want to go--left or right.
The $64,000 question, in my mind is---Was Obama sincere in his campaign promises of REAL "hope and change" or was he a
corporatist all along who managed to bamboozle so many into voting for "hope and change" on which he never intended to
follow through?
I believe, the near-term actions of this President and the White House will give our nation a definitive answer to that question.
Like a Rorschach test, the Massachusetts outcome can be viewed in many ways--and how Obama and his White House choose
to view the result, will reveal the truth about where this administration stands.
