WOOOOO-EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

At this hour, we have resoundingly taken back the House and - gasp - WE MIGHT HAVE THE SENATE, TOO!  We've taken four seats back, and Virginia and Montana's seats hang in the balance, with the Democratic challengers *leading* in each by a narrow margin.

Ennis, I guess, was sick o' the Republicans' dumbass missin'.

The rest of us were mad as hell, and we weren't gonna take it anymore.

Best of all, the Evil One, Rick Santorum, is GONE.  And by a landslide.  Thank you, Pennsylvania.

Webb is squeeking by in Virginia, about 8,000 votes, and the absentees have not been counted. I have my fingers and toes crossed.

Yippee ti yi yo, git along little Bushies!  You know that "Compromise" will be your new home....

Yep.  Even George isn't thick enough to miss the message we've just sent him.

Got my YEEE-HAAW! shirt on today, and am very very happy with the results of the election (I was calling voters till almost 9 pm last night, and got many "already voted" responses, so that was reassuring.

I'm eagerly awaiting the announcements about Virginia and Montana too. It's a good day to be a brokie! (which brings up the question, I wonder how Jack and Ennis would have voted...now there's a new topic! )

Well, we know Ennis had no use for "the fire and brimstone crowd."

Well, I have mixed feelings. The good news is, in Colorado we have a democratic governor AND a democratic legislature. None of that Beauprez character who put me in a bah-humbug mood by speaking at my firstborn child's high school graduation! But the bad news is that our brave new domestic partnership bill didn't pass, and the definition-of-marriage amendment did. Bah! The Focus on the Family crowd won despite the Haggart affair, which might have actually hurt our chances rather than help them.

Yes, and I can't freaking believe it, Lee! Especially that definition-of-marriage crap. Conservatism in Colorado always seemed to be the classical, government-out-of-out-business kind. I am really surprised by this.
