Thank God That's Over.

Or, the only thing that could make me want to go through an election night is nine months of presidential campaigning.

Don't get me wrong, I love politics, the political process, voting, our democracy, yeah.  But my nails are chewed down to nubs.  Four years ago, I was trying to cheer for Obama and my country while crying for my childhood home, California at the same time.  This morning, I am all smiles as the hateful misogynistic Republican senators and house members went down, three states voted to legalize same-sex marriage, a fourth voted not to make it illegal, we elected our first openly gay Senator (and she's a woman, too!), first Asian-American woman Senator, and our first disabled woman legislator, and we reelected Barrack Obama!

I can relax now.

*Shakes head* and he tried so hard to talk down to Obama about foreign policy, trying to make himself look like "the adult in the room". Thank God he failed. He would have been horrible, and we would look like idiots.
