Libertarian Party local Chair praises Scott Brown win

William N. Gaillard is Chair of the South Bay Libertarians (near Los Angeles), and a former 3-time State Assembly candidate on the Libertarian ticket. He is also a part-time resident of Prescott, Arizona.

Gilliard had an opinion piece published by the Arizona Republic, Jan. 23, "Libertarian Cheers Mass Results" (Excerpt):

Tuesday's special election in Massachusetts was a real double whammy against the Rocky Mountain canaries by the pachyderms.

As a Libertarian, aka "Third Party" member, I can well afford the luxury of standing on the sidelines simply to lick my chops and then gloat at the cared-for results... Not only did Republicans take a Senate seat in Democratic "seat-safe" Taxachusetts, they took a Kennedy seat. This has been unheard of since 1962.

When the last surviving paterfamilias of "Camelot" died last year, so did the pervasive hegemony of this family upon American politics. I just didn't believe that it would crash and burn this quickly and with such a resounding thud.

This unassailable repudiation of political arrogance in Washington over the past year will also sound the death knell for both this "health-scare" bill and the Obama administration.

President Barack Obama will now go down in the history of this republic as America's first, first-term, lame-duck president.
