The logic doesnt add up....

In a ABC interview yesterday President Obama explained the Brown Senate win was attributed to "Anger that goes back 8 years" so in essence the voters were so mad at George Bush that they elected Brown to office (as if it must have been an accident) a unapologetic Conservative who's views include strong Military, across the board tax cuts, who stated WaterBoarding is not torture, enemy combatives deserve no Constitutional protections, he is a Climate change skeptic and he has a firm stance against Cap and Trade and above all against Healthcare reform. .
If this sounds strangely familiar to what a hard line Rebublican would run on you would be correct. Yet for all those views that are so in tune with a former President who's party was so bad for our country that to this day still leaves a visceral anger in the population as a whole (let alone a area that is perhaps arguably one of the most Democratic in the nation) the voters decided to put this party and its candidate back in office one short year later.
I know everyone spins but this is hard to wrap your head around, afterall this anger is the soul reason he is our President to begin with, was the country so blinded by anger they voted for the wrong guy then aswell?
OK that was going a bit far perhaps but again, how can he say the public is so angry with Bush and Republicans that they sent a message about it by voting in a Republican?...., and lets not forget this wasnt a race of an incombent so its harder in this particular case to argue that point.
I think its becoming very apparent that this is a clear message that it is Obama's policy and agenda that isnt exceptable and while he is ofcourse personally popular his ideas and style are clearly not.
