An Amoral Victory in Massachusetts

Senator-elect Brown's victory in Massachusetts should not be seen as a moral victory for Republicans. The victory should not be seen as a "demoralizing" loss for Democrats. The only moral issue here is that in spite of who controls congress 45,000Americans die each year due to a lack of health insurance. This is not about a bunch of silly boys and girls making rules in a club like the Little Rascals. Its about savable lives.It is about needless human suffering. Its not about 59 or 41 its about 45,000 lives a year-some one's mother,father,daughter or son.
Just one other thought here about a moral victory-Senator Brown voted for the health care plan that insures health care for everyone in Massachusetts and now he is going to obstruct health care for everyone else?
