Wowee!
You know, I could never understand why my parents would want to watch election results, and presidential speeches, and the like. Now, every 2-4 years I find myself parked in front of the TV, flipping channels, looking to see who has the newest information. The only other time I do that is during awards season. At least I still can't stand the State of the Union.
Anyway, yay! Democrats on the move, yea. And to boot, Rumsfeld stepping down? I thought they were going to have to blast his body out of there. Here in MN we elected our first female senator but failed to boot the idiot Tim Pawlenty out of the governor's seat. How can we elect a Democratic senator woth 70% of the vote and yet still vote in a Republican governor? I guess enough people in this state think Tim's done a good job raping the state budget.
I do wish that the Democratic win were a little bit more decisive. I mean, yea we overshot our needed 15 seats by a few, but the Senate thing is still not assured, and even if it is, it's only a one-vote majority. It's not exactly what I would call a mandate. Still, I'll take it!
