Important Senate Race: Health Care Reform

On Tuesday there will be a very important Senate seat filled in Massachusetts.  The Democrats are hoping that Martha Coakley will beat Republican Scott Brown for the position.  If Coakley loses then a very important “60th vote” will become a Republican vote which could scuttle the Obama Health Care Reform bill.  As a result, the Senate election has become the focus of national attention.  Many Americans have a vested interest in this reform bill as it could provide a public health care option for a vast amount of American’s who cannot afford it on their own.  Tuesday’s event will be closely monitored.  The subsequent weeks following the election will be very interesting as well.
