I can't believe it

Democratically-controlled House of Representatives, led by Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

I like it. Got a nice ring to it. Say it with me:
Subpoena power.

There's gotta be some urine-soaked tighty-whities in the White House tonight.

In other news, the bOregonian is calling Measures 39 (prohibiting public transfer of property to private hands) and 44 (expanding prescription drugs under the Oregon Health Plan) as passing - both of those got my vote, too. Everything else is failing, which is also how I voted.

Sadly, Connecticut (and the world) appears to be still stuck with Joe "Joe for Joe's sake" Lieberman. Wanker. That's my only major disappointment tonight, though.

In other news, I haven't felt this good on Election Night since... since... um, ever. (In '92, I voted for Perot - don't be mad, I was a crazy Libertarian)


Comments:
another couple words, though these ones rain on my parade: Veto Power and Signing Statements :(
but YES yay for the house. Did you catch when Rick Santorum's kid was crying. I'm not proud to say it, but that tickled me the SLIGHTEST bit.
 
Brian I'm also disappointed that Tammy Duckworth and Harold Ford lost to two of the worst of the worst Repug "sleaseballs" out there. I guess I will count the blessings that have come to pass and be thankfull at least that the Dems will be in a position to put the brakes of the "Bush" for the next two years.
