Bernie Sanders is a Senator!!!!!!!!!!! Yeee Haaaa!!!!!!

[Armstead]

To me that's the best news of the night.

An honest-to-God outspoken take-no-prisoners Progressive Anto-Corporate Populist in the Senate....Paul Wellstone must be smiling up there.

With a tight balance in the Senate, Bernie will also be in a position to force the Democrats to do some horse-trading. So Bernie can help to alleviate the Lieberman Effect.

Woo Hoo!

1. I'm Envious

Vermont makes my Massachusetts seem downright Conservative.

2. Yep.

We got us a Senator for all Americans. And I'm pretty damned pleased about Sherrod Brown too. I expect they'll work together closely. Bernie's speech last night was just wonderful.

presence known.

[Armstead]

5. He's going to make whatever committees he is on a lot more interesting

His confrontations with Alan Greenspan were classics.

a socialist Senator. Hopefully we can get more like him.

10. Bernie Sanders should stay off of small planes from now on.

Hey, sorry for putting on my tinfoil hat. :tinfoilhat:

If I were still in VT I would've voted for him too, he's an excellent addition to the Senate! :woohoo:
