For the first time since many decades, a Democratic candidate has won the Representative's seat from District 26 in NY. Hopefully the middle class is rising to fight the corporations and big money who clearly believe them to be stupid and unable to think for themselves.
The Republican party at this point is voting with almost complete disregard as to how their constituents wish them to vote. It would seem that many politicians seem to think that once they are voted into office, their job is done for those who elected them and they can treat their votes by their own agendas.
One cn wonder whether Speaker Boehner will see this as a wake-up call and how many other districts with Republicans who vote lock-step with their party, despite their own conscience dictates, will do.
If the red states cannot turn blue, perhaps they will be able to lean towards purple.
