US elections redux
This morning, the US election results are everything I hoped. Democratic control of congress (working majority), and possible control of the Senate (recount pending in Montana). I think it’s obvious what needs to be done; bring accountability (and some modicum of sanity) to US politics, and reel in Bush’s war game fantasies.
And try to heal the rifts which at times seem to have split the US into two enemy armed camps…

It’s a beautiful day here in America. The Dems finally grew a spine, and were rewarded for it in spades. Ignore all those reports about how conservative Democrats won the day. Absurd. Look at who won and who lost. The progressives carried the day. The new senators from MT and VA are as blue as they come.
