i had been feeling pretty hopeless about this election so imagine my surprise when i woke up. arizona's gay marriage ban failed and nancy pelosi is now the majoriity leader, which means the democrats won and for the first time a woman is in an important elected federal position.
and there's some more hopeful things. not only are more governors now democrats, but Deval Patrick became the nation's only second ever black governor.
even though we're still stuck with ahnold for gov, i feel like i got an early christmas present.
