In all the hooplah over the governorships, and propositions, and school boards, and all the other great victories we won Tuesday, I just wanted to say that we also won something very important: the fear of some Republicans in Congress.
Have you noticed, since Tuesday, all of a sudden, the Republicans don't want to drill in ANWR anymore; and all of a sudden, they're not so thrilled with spending cuts that target the poor, and, oh, by the way, the social security debacle is postponed till after the 2006 elections?
The Republicans are running to the Center and that's a good thing for America even if it's going to make some races harder for some Democrats in '06. We're just gonna hafta fight, but, on Tuesday, we won that too... the knowledge that if we fight, we're gonna win...
So now the shoe's on the other foot. They're the wimps. We smell the blood in the water. It's a whole 'nuther ball game.
Yeeeeha!
