Rumsfeld resigned! I think that should be on the list in blue.
Kaethe, I know! What is that about? I didn't see it coming at all, but it's starting to feel like Christmas.

"Why Mommy is a Democrat" is a book Bud (and Mom-nos) may enjoy. Enjoying the blog!

Even those of us north of the 49th are celebrating Rumsfeld's departure...
As for the democrats, I wish! We live in total RED conservative country up here. Sadly, there are too few of us who sport the lack of a red-neck...but we'll keep on working on it.
The races were close. I went to bed still worried. I was much happier when I woke up and saw the final results.
And here in Nebraska, Ben Nelson (D) beat the jiminy out of Pete Ricketts (R) for Senate.
Woot!
California, California, you always surprise us.
(A scrap of an ode to my native state.)
Ah, at last...what a relief!!
