Dude. I still can't believe it.

[Plaid Adder]

I have nothing clever to say about it, really...I just can't believe it. We got BOTH houses back.

I wish we could have a big real-life DU party where we could all meet each other and celebrate and then maybe it would sink in a little better.

I know the whole disillusionment thing is going to set in soon enough, but really, guys, take a couple days and just savor it. Because it really is SWEET.

mmmmmmm tasty,

The Plaid Adder

1. We tore them a new Ann Coulter!

:evilgrin:

[Tuesday_Morning]

2. I hear ya.

I'm still happily stunned.

It's a whole new ballgame.

[Bunny]

3. Dude, I'm in the same spot.

B-)

[bif]

4. Pretty damn cool isn't it?

I'm having a glass (well, a couple of glasses actually) of wine to celebrate for the third night in a row. George and Dick better get some good lawyers, 'cause they're gonna need 'em.

[MoonRiver]

5. Still pinching myself!

Can it really have happened? Hubby and I went out tonight to toast this incredible transformation of our country with a couple of glasses of bubbly!

[Tiggeroshii]

12. Same here.

It seems almost surreal.

[porphyrian]

6. And we didn't lose anything. And we got a bunch of governors.

And rummy was forced to quit.

The hits keep coming...

[SaneInSC]

7. yeah

Pretty unbelievable. But then, when you consider the last 6 years..we should be ready for just about anything :)

[texpatriot2004]

8. It is stunning and fabulous nm

[EFerrari]

9. I wasn't even sure it was possible, I mean, physically possible

to vote Dems in! Of course I knew they could win, I just didn't know if they could get seated.

Man.

[G Hawes]

10. Absolutely wonderful, isn't it?

I'm still reeling a bit, too.

But happily so.

[Fed Up]

11. Brother Ray on KGO never sounded better

He is ecstatic.

[savemefromdumbya]

13. I guess the Diebold machine vote hacker was on vacation on Nov 7?

good job

[smoogatz]

15. They just didn't turn the "flip" knob up high enough.

There was some pretty anomolous shit going on in both VA and MT, in terms of the exit polls. Red shift all over again.

[smoogatz]

14. B-b-but it's really a great victory for conservatism!

Because, uh, you know, the Republicans who got their asses handed to them were, um, liberals! Yeah, that's it!

[Raine]

16. I keep thinking I'm going

to wake up and find out it was all just a beautiful dream.

[tinfoilinfor2005]

17. My daughter and I switched off taking care of sick kid

while we worked and carried signs, so I was a bit done in yesterday. But I woke up with a new lease on life this morning. Sigh.

I agree with you...wish I could meet every single DUer and give each one a hug. :hug:

[opihimoimoi]

18. It was nice to see Bush change his Spots and come groveling to Nancy

Mr Bush did something for the first time since 9/11...he reached out....

[Avalux]

19. I'm still in shock, really.

Seeing Pelosi commanding respect from Bush, watching Reid in the park with a cheering crowd - it all seems so surreal. As you say, the disillusionment will set in soon enough, but for now, it's all very, very sweet - and almost unbelievable. :hi:

[Olney Blue]

20. Thank you for this great post, PA!

I've been sending around emails with nothing but a smiley face to my friends.

They email a smile right back- no words needed!

[byronius]

21. Lalalalalalalalalalalal!!!

Doob-doopty doo!! Lalalala! Woooooooohooooo!!!

[spanone]

22. I'm with you PA. I'm quite stunned. I'm also so reassured.

[William Bloode]

23. I'm diggin' it so hard i'll be in China soon!

It's like something has been expelled from me. I fee lighter cleaner and SAFER than ever. I swear to jeebus, i have been so scared the past 5-6yrs. It's almost as enlightening as when i went through Glasnost, and lost the fear of imminent nuclear war.

Serious! :scared:

[cally]

24. I keep getting calls from friends

where I have the same conversation over and over again. We just want to be giddy together and savor this. It feels great!

[applegrove]

25. The tension is gone. Adults back. I cannot wait for news to return to

normal reporting instead of all the propaganda. That was truly sickening. And dangerous. My only worry is that most people didn't learn long term how dangerous liars & mystics are in power. Hopefully Bush will continue with his parade of lies for the next two years and the lesson will be reinforced.

Don't vote for empty vessels.

[Cleita]

26. I will savor after the new Congress is sworn in.

Other than that, there is too much that might happen between now and then.

[DemoTex]

27. Reminds me of an old high school pep cheer (ca. 1962)

Ya got it, now keep it!
Dogone-it don't lose it!

Ya got it, now keep it!
Dogone-it don't lose it!

Ya got it, now keep it!
Dogone-it don't lose it!

Ya got it, now keep it!
Dogone-it don't lose it!

[Wrinkle_In_Time]

28. Chick. It's true.

Savour it. You did more than your fair share. Now, during this brief respite, please put your feet up and enjoy your choice of tipple.

Breathe. It feels good, doesn't it?

Now the work really starts for the Democratic Party Majority (it feels good to type that). I have high hopes.
