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.
