Brown (R) Takes Massachusetts Senate Seat. Your Thoughts?

Scott Brown (R) handily beat Martha Coakley (D) in today’s Senate election in Democratic-stronghold Massachusetts. What do you think the fallout will be?

The NY Times reports that, with 93 percent of the vote counted, Brown had a 53 – 48% victory. Coakley has conceded the race.

Brown demonstrates his Family Values in 1982.

What do you think will come of this? We see a few possibilities:

• Democrats realize that a Dark Blue state voted in a Republican, and that means that all those polls saying American voters don’t want Obamacare really means that American voters don’t want Obamacare. They start listening to voters and hang on through the 2010 midterm elections.
• Democrats bludgeon another Senator into siding with them on Obamacare, retaining 60 votes, and pass the health insurance company bailout bill. They tank in November, ushering in a Republican revolution.
• Voters sick of both parties get behind a third party.

Other?
