Favorable Outcomes

My State Assembly, Congressional Representative, and Presidential candidates all lost.  Bad day for the Republican party.

 

Here is my positive spin on the results:

 

1.       The United States elected an African American President.  I hope he is the uniter that he promised to be.  For now, I have wiped the slate cleaned and am giving him a fresh chance.   We will see how he governs.

2.       The Senate didn’t get a filibuster proof majority.

3.       California passed a redistricting measure by the narrowest of margins.

4.       Tom McClintock got elected to the US House.  He is a champion of the taxpayer and should be a great conservative voice in Pelosi’s house.

 

Saddest facts:

1.       Al Franken is close to being a Senator.

2.       John  Murtha was not upset.
