Woot!

Same sex marriage passes in Maryland, and they will be able to honeymoon at our brand new full service casino! Now that's a good night.

I guess our honeymooners will just have to celebrate by getting stoned. ;)

Only outcome I'm bummed about so far is apparently we are still unwilling to give up the death penalty.

Yes, that was the one really dark mark in an otherwise supernova-bright election night. I'm also a bit sad that Michelle Bachman and Paul Ryan retain their seats in Congress, but oh well.

But gay marriage wins in four states, a near sweep of senate races, that presidential win, defeats of Republican loonies Todd Akin and Richard Mourdock (rape brand) and Allen West (general loonie brand), and more than half the California ballot initiatives going well is really quite a fantastic result. Really the best election night I can remember.

Watching the Fox News commentators coming unglued was fun too.

I missed all that and Diane Sawyer as well. Between hiding my eyes watching the initial returns, I was switching between MSNBC and CBS and Turner Classic Movies.

I saw the Diane Sawyer clips alleging she was drunk. Honestly, it didn't come off like drunkenness to me. To me she just sounded like her normal self, but maybe a little tired.

But reveled in the schadenfreude I absorbed from the Fox casters.

Apparently God doesn't like people who don't use their brain, or the science he created ;)

I think VicJac has crossed into the realm of mental illness.

Because there isn't such a thing as a Democrat who's Christian? A thing I can't believe.

Your guy lost. It happens. Sorry.
