Nov. 7th, 2012 12:42 pmI just want to say that I am super pleased today about how the election went. Elizabeth Warren is our senator!!!! I am so excited to have been able to play a tiny part in helping that dream come true. Maine finally stood up and became awesome with Question 1. Even our embattled Congressman, John Tierney, pulled off a win (I sincerely thought the tea party Repub would snag that one). I voted a tax increase for myself (adopting the Community Preservation Act in Salem) because I like living in a nice place. I firmly believe that community and society require personal buy-in (monetarily and philosophically) to function, and that we all benefit when we contribute to the public good. Also, har har, some of the whining on my FB today is hilarious- hardcore right wingers crying that they are going to move to Canada. Ha ha. I would actually love to see them try that.
