As of midnight, Obama has 338 votes to McCain’s 155. It’s over. McCain has conceded, and Obama is giving his acceptance speech.
Don’t bitch at me about it; I don’t want to hear it. Most of you didn’t bother to show up in 2006 when the Republicans lost control of the Legislative branch. Now it’s in the bag. The next two years will be worse than the entire Clinton administration for the country.
I won’t go into what Obama will do. We already know that. The only thing that will minimize the damage will be for the Republicans to take back the Legislature in 2010. For that we need another Newt Gingrich, one that will stick to his guns this time.
I don’t have too much faith in even that, though.
