Current DNC chair Tim Kaine has been nothing but a complete disaster. Under his watch, Democrats have lost two governorships, a net of 16 state legislative seats(including special elections), and could well lose Ted Kennedy's old Senate race. Howard Dean would have never let this happen, while Tim Kaine has been completely invisible on every front. Tim Kaine must go if Martha Coakley loses next week.

It is not just a Senate seat in Massuchessetts that we could very well lose in a week, it is Ted Kennedy's old seat. Ted Kennedy was for years, an icon in the Democratic party. Even in the worst of times for Democrats, like during some of the Reagan years and during the 1990's, Ted Kennedy was there fighting the good fight. Now that he is gone, could this liberal icon really be replaced by a conservative Republican in one of the most Democratic states in the country?

I am not 100% sure how ping ponging healthcare works, but President Obama needs to get healthcare reform through the House and Senate again and on his desk before January 19th, where Democrat Martha Coakley might lose to a Republican in a Massachussetts Senate race, of all places. He needs to force Congress to come to Washington and ping-pong the Senate healthcare bill through the House and Senate quickly before January 19th, when the clock could stop forever.

Jerome has mentioned in his daily polling diary that Martha Coalkley is up by 11 points over Republican Scott Brown in an internal poll in the Massachussets Senate race, which takes in two weeks. 11 points may sound like a lot, but Coakley appears to be barely at 50% and Republicans are far more energized right now. The question is, what happens with healthcare if Democrats lose their filibuster proof majority?

If this healthcare bill passes, it will destroy the Democrats for a generation. Those are the words I have been hearing from some people on this site. My question is, if that were the case, why is the GOP trying so hard to kill the bill? The reason is that this bill would be good for Democrats and likely link millions of new voters to the Democratic party for years to come.

I constantly think to myself "what if this happened" and "what if that happened". I know that it may be monday morning quarterbacking, but as a human, I am always curious. One question I always ask myself is "what would have happened had healthcare reform passed in 1994?". Sadly, we will never know the answer, but I think this would be a pretty interesting conversation to have.
