James Republican Strategy/Seat Open? The State of the Union 3 Scott Brown Wins Massachusetts Senate Seat

The 2010 Massachusetts Senate Election has turned out to be one of the most recent historical National Elections ever. The death of Edward Kennedy allowed a Senate Seat up for grabs. In the Senate Race, the Democrat Martha Coakley ran to keep that Seat as D versus the Republican Scott Brown.
At 7pm Pacific Time, Martha Coakley conceded the race with 96% of the votes tallied. A Republican just won a State that has historically voted Democrat.
In Coakley's Speech she thanked former President Clinton and the Kennedy Family for their support in this "Endeavor". In the Concession Speech she said:"This is the deal". "Although its over tonight, the mission continues and the work goes on". That part of the speech sounded similiar to Edward Kennedy's concession speech in the 1976 Democratic Nomination for President.
Massachusetts of late have been successful on registering Independent Party voters that swayed this election. In a Democratic State, this seat has been held by Kennedy since 1972. Coakley indirectly blamed what was going on in National Politics why she was unsuccessful at winning this election. She said that "the anger of the American People", health care she mentioned, the 2 Wars, troops attitudes towards national issues when they come home were all key factors why the Voters voted the way they did.
Now after the New Jersey and Virginia Elections, does the recent Massachusetts Election prove that the National Policies of American leaders the last 12 months are a cause and effect reason why the voters are voting they way they have?
Coakley did blame health care indirectly.
Browns Victory Speech first starts out: "The Independent Voice of Massachusetts has spoken".
With 96% of the Votes tallied according to the AP Poll, Brown had 52% of the votes at 1,112,574 and Martha Coackley had 47% with 1,000,597. Coakley conceded before all the votes tallied.
"This is the People's Seat" said Brown in his Victory speech now going on.
This is a very historical election, a possible referendum on the Democratic Party. Independent Voters make the difference in the Seat for Senate in Massachusetts in 2010. The Republicans currently have 41 Seats in the Senate. The Democrats no longer have the 60 Seats in the Senate to be able to pass legislation without any challenge. Coakley stated that she will continue to serve as Attorney General for the Commonwealth. This is a monumental win for Brown giving the Republicans this seat in a Blue State.
