Just got a few calls telling us that President Obama, during a meeting with Senate Democrats, referred to the GOP's recent Massachusetts Senate victory and quoted our headline, "Scott Brown Wins Mass. Race, Giving GOP 41-59 Majority in the Senate." Per TPM, the President said, "There was apparently a headline after the Massachusetts election. The Village Voice announced that Republicans win a 41-59 majority. It's worth thinking about. We still have to lead." "Good scolding!" says the American Prospect's Ezra Klein. Not everyone is pleased. "The President just quoted the far Left Village Voice," says Sean Hackbarth Online Communications Advisor to the Senate Republican Conference. "But he isn't an ideologue."
