CELEBRATING!

I did not watch election coverage. At all. Did not want to hear that Ohio's POS secretary of state had succeeded as Blackwell did in 2004. I honestly expected that the GOPsters would manage to sabotage the election

I agree--it was a fantastic night for liberals! And women! And LGBT folks. And a start, hopefully, in ending the useless war on drugs.

I've followed every major political event of this election on TV while also on Twitter--made the whole thing so much more fun! Comedians, pundits, Barack Obama For America--full of information, intellect and wit. Sometimes wonderfully scathing wit.

Celebrating myself! Especially Maine and Maryland in addition to The Big One.

My local races came out satisfyingly, too. Including keeping the state senator who was half of the first same-sex couple to marry in CT -- her wife teaches history at my kid's high school. :)

Mostly? I'm just RELIEVED.

Yeah. Didn't realize how tense I was until the "stand-down-from-red-alert" set in. Whew - no fear of nut-bar appointments to the Supreme Court for the next few years.

[julian_griffith]

Yeah. That was a BIGGIE.

I would almost like there to be a couple of retirements now so Obama can make good appointments before he goes.

Hopefully scuzzballs like Scalia and Thomas.
