President! Obama!! Also: Marriage Equality in Maryland and Elsewhere!

I am so blessedly relieved about the presidential election. I think people finally got good and scared of the anti-women knee-jerk hateful Republican party (and fed up with all the voting shenanigans), as well they should have! It was scary close: apparently a lot of people can lie to themselves about a flagrant lying liar if he smiles pretty and invokes God.

I am also proud to bursting about my home state! Go, Maryland, go! Now so many of our friends and neighbors can get married: it's a new morning, and they can become the families they've always wanted to be. And they can do it in Minnesota and Maine and (maybe) Washington state, too. And Maryland's Dream Act law was passed, as well!   \o/

There were so many great victories last night! Equal marriage in more than one state, women senators winning victories all over the place, INDEPENDENTS winning offices in Maine and Vermont, people voicing their disapproval of extremist thinking...

It's a good day all around <3.

I couldn't believe how many people were willing to fall for Romney's dog and pony show. For a while there, I was genuinely afraid. Thank goodness the Majority are smarter than that.
