Much has been written, spoken and speculated regarding the Scott Brown victory for the senate seat in Massachusetts. I don’t live in the New England area. I live in the middle of this great country and I can tell you that from where I sit, the victory was not about one party or another at all.
It was about one thing and one thing only – Partisanship.
And those of us out here in the middle of the country, and I suspect within both the left and right coasts, are tired of it.
But the politicians and alleged representatives in both parties still don’t get it.
We want the word partisanship and, for that matter, bipartisanship removed from the language of our Congress and political landscape.
We don’t care if one party doesn’t work with the other and we sure don’t care if they work together simply as a means to look like something is getting done.
What we want is for the concept and notion that one party has to have it their way or else become an extinct notion.
We want everyone we elect to represent us to do just that -REPRESENT US!
Put aside the idea that you must march lock step with your party. Put us and this great country first.
That’s all there is to it. Put the country first and get the government out of our way. We have more power to fix this mess than you do.
Do it.
Or we will find someone who will.
