Democrats take the Senate!!

Elections do good things, like eliminating Allen, Frist, and Kerry from 2008 contention. The major impact will be on judicial appointees, where the social conservatives will be rejected out of hand. Say hello to GRIDLOCK, a valuable gift from the Founders.

Oh one was just the same as the other to me, in that Virginia election. i just wish they would have had their election over there a little more quietly. Every week it was some new stupid "scandal" or "revelation" which i had to hear instead of news stories which might have genuinely interested me. Coupla rich guys with talking points. Yawn.

i agree that the implications will be heaviest in the judicial-appointee arena. Too bad there is still a lot of work left to do in other arenas, such as education, health care, retirement funds, and not like we could forget campaign-finance reform, which IMO drives everything else that goes on up there. the real capitol building is K Street.

Troy your avatar is great :)
