Watched the Jon Stewart/Stephen Colbert show on the elections before I went to bed, so I had a feeling things would be looking good this morning, but this??

Democrats win control of House

South Dakotans rejected a law that would have banned virtually all abortions, Arizona became the first state to defeat an amendment to ban gay marriage and Missouri approved a measure backing stem cell research.

And in my state, the person I voted for (Nancy Boyda) actually won!

I have to go to work now, but today is the day to buy a lottery ticket, I'm thinking. ;-) *plays bouncy music and dances around the room*

I'm feeling a lot better about the political landscape today, even if we don't win the Senate. (Which we still might-- Dems are ahead by a hair...) OTOH, lots of states banned gay marriage. Gah.

I know; I live in one of them. Bleh.

But fingers crossed for the Senate, too. :-)
