Massachusetts Political Upset




There was a big political upset in a special Senate election in Massachusetts this week. Watch the above video and read this article about the election.

In the comment section, explain why this election is important outside of Massachusetts. What impact do you think this election will have on the health care debate, and/or other issues facing Congress?

  2. This election is importante outside of massachusetts because it put the senate in more of a republican lead. I believ this election will have a positive effect(in my opinion) in the health care debate, and will slow the demecrats push twords reforming healthcare.
