You-damn-betcha!

....and we just got news out of Wisconsin that Tammy Baldwin beat Tommy Thompson ... and Willard and Zombie-Eyes are just now conceding ... WOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YAAAAAAY!!!!!

And oh, my god, I love your GIF!!!!!!

Thanks. It doesn't mean this country doesn't still have a boatload - a danger-of-sinking-amount - of problems. It means that we may have the right person at the helm right now. I am so bloody relieved.

Oh, aye, it was; now it's up to all of us to make the coming days, weeks and years equally good for democracy. Woo-hoo!

Horseraces? As in, focusing too much on the race aspect of our election, or as in an actual horse race that's important in Australia and not up here? (Yes, I am that sleep deprived and loopy this morning.)

And you're right, it is great stuff.

Abso-bloody-lutely!!!!!

*high fives with you*

I've spent the day on the couch being sick, but it's allowed me to watch some coverage of the conservative meltdown-cum-imaginary world building exercise craziness that's come in the wake of the election. I've also, perhaps in the spirit of knowing one's opposition, read a few of the fruitbat right-wing (or just plain hovering way off any axis) blogs.

They all live on Planet Goo-Goo.

So if they've decided, for whatever reason, that Australia is Better Than Here, mere logic and actual facts isn't going to stop them from thinking that. Logic and actuality are just socialist scams.

Informed reflection? I'll want to read or listen to some of that. Eventually. Now, though, I'm indulging in cruel schadenfreude.
