Election Madness

Goodness, the Democrats took both houses of Congress. I wasn't even letting myself hope they would get one, so I was shocked when my mother woke up with tears of joy in her eyes. My mother's only woken me up with new twice before in my life. The first time was when Jean-Claude Duvalier was driven out of Haiti (tears of joy), the second was when Jean-Bertrand Aristide was overthrown (tears of sadness).

Still, I can't help but wonder what the hell people know now that they didn't know two years ago.
