In Massachusetts and across the country, Americans reject the liberal agenda

January 19, 2010

David Cole, Chairman of the Missouri Republican Party, issued the following statement on the outcome of the U.S. Senate race in Massachusetts:

“All across the nation, Americans are soundly rejecting the big-government, over-reaching policies of President Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid. In the past 3 months, Republicans have won statewide races in the swing-state of Virginia and in deep-blue states like New Jersey and Massachusetts, all which voted heavily for Barack Obama. This is an unmistakable repudiation of the Democrats’ agenda—from their health care debacle to cap-and-trade and the expansion of the federal government into the lives and pocketbooks of hard-working Americans.

“Scott Brown’s victory has put Missouri Democrats on notice. Now more than ever, it is clear that Missourians will hold Robin Carnahan, Claire McCaskill, Ike Skelton, and Russ Carnahan accountable for blindly supporting the Obama-Pelosi-Reid agenda while turning their backs on our state.”
