President Barack Obama and his Democratic Party raced to re-evaluate their health care plans and electoral strategy following their stunning loss of a Senate seat in Massachusetts long held by Edward M Kennedy.
The embarrassing defeat to Republican Scott Brown in a Democratic stronghold was a bitter end to the president's first year in office Wednesday, and it triggered furious party soul-searching.
Frustrated Democrats urged the White House to focus on jobs and the economy - not the health care overhaul that's now at risk - and pressed Obama to more forcefully make their case against Republicans ahead of potentially disastrous Congressional elections this fall.
"We need a jobs bill. We need short-term, focused strategies to create jobs, real fast," said Sen. Bob Casey. "If the dominant message isn't about jobs and spending, we'll be making a difficult challenge exponentially more difficult."
