Most of the media this evening was discussing whether the Missouri referendum would go to court or not. I was a bit surprised to hear that.
What was even more telling from a political standpoint was how quiet the Democrats in Missouri were (some of whom voted for the Health Care Bill). Most privately said that they feared for their political life if they came out against this Proposition C. Given the voting results, they were correct to be apprehensive. To have a bellweather state vote so strongly against the Health Care Bill is a red flag to Obama and the majority party.
