It's all about balance of power

Who knows what mischief can be created when one party holds all the power? Who knows what Republicans would do, if this fever for power seized them and they had the opportunity? (Although it's harder to imagine that bunch doing what the Dems are doing.) Here is a good example that even in Mass., citizens want a balance of power:

"Despite being a lifelong member of the Democratic Party, I am endorsing Scott Brown for Senate, as I know he will always represent Massachusetts with an independent voice in Washington," Sheets said. "Martha Coakley has repeatedly stated she would cast the critical 60th vote for the current health care proposal that would slash Medicare funding by nearly half-a-trillion dollars and dramatically impact the care so many seniors rely upon in their final years. As our United States Senator, I am confident Scott Brown will only support legislation that will benefit his constituents, and this is why I will be voting for him on Tuesday."
