When state Sen. Scott Brown was elected, it sat the nation on its heels. It was the first time in almost 50 years that Massachusetts had elected a GOPer to the Senate.

It was a clear message from the voters. Yet our politicians continue to ignore that message. Congressional primaries are now coming into full swing and Indiana voters recently elected a Tea Party challenger over their 36-year incumbent.

We can all vote out the career politicians.

We have precious little time left to recover from the damage they are doing — 2012 is critical. We are at a tipping point. Ask your candidates to go through the GOOOH (Get Out of Our House) process so you can see where they stand on the issues.
