Election editorial missed the mark

Regarding the Nov. 7 editorial 'A wave of voter discontent”:

The title for the Gazette's post-election editorial would have been better titled 'Voters reject Obama's policies.”

The editorial had several valid points, but missed the mark when it said that our federal government and its leaders are unable to work together in properly governing the nation. The leaders should be narrowed to one leader, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. The House has passed over 380 bills in a bi-partisan manner that Reid has refused to send to the Senate floor for a vote. The liberal leaning media (Gazette included) then jumps on the band wagon of Republicans being the party of no when in truth Reid and the Democrats are the real party of no. This omittance is a disservice to the people and one of the reasons readership is down. The Republican Party should be labeled the party of common sense conservative principals.
