Delahunt said in a statement that voters are angry. “They want us to work together to get the economy back on track, and they want more jobs,’’ he said. “They also want us to get spending under control and fix health care – but in a way that’s simple, transparent, and understandable.”
Yesterday, Delahunt significantly backed away from his strong support of the health care bill in comments on MSNBC. The adviser said that Delahunt had been considering such a move for months, but that Brown’s election on Tuesday convinced him most constituents would support a new approach.
So Congressman Delahunt backs away from Nancy P.? Funny how this is now something he has been considering for some months. When was he going to make up his mind? After the votes where taking?
The Reality is all 10 seats that Mass. has are up for reelection this year, and since Brown not only won, but did so well in some of these districts, that the Democrats that have been elected time and time again are now changing their tune.
The Boston Globe has a great story on this today

Please note that Massachusetts has their very own Universal Health Care System…nice of them to decide that the rest of us aren’t worthy.
That’s just it, each state should decide for themselves if they wish to pay for everyone in the states insurance. Congress has no legal grounds for trying to force people to pay or buy anything…
