I'm very happy

with the results of the election. I'm particularly happy that the Marriage Amendment of Minnesota went down to defeat, and proud that I phone banked against it. It's the first time I've volunteered with a political campaign like that. Yes, gay marriage is still illegal in the state of Minnesota, but at least it isn't written into our constitution. I'm delighted that the Photo ID amendment was voted down, I'm happy that Elizabeth Warren was voted in, in Massachusetts. I'm sorta happy that Obama was re-elected, but mostly I'm ecstatic that Mitt Romney was defeated.

And I'm happy that Fiona voted in her first Presidential election evah. (Not her first election, mind: being her mother and daddy's daughter, she has already faithfully voted in some primary elections.).

(But Michele Bachmann is going back to Congress. Boo! Please don't judge the rest of us Minnesotans by her politicians of her ilk, USA.)


And now, a victory lap by Obama's Anger Translator. Hat tip to [livejournal.com profile] sdn:
