Congratulations to the Victors

History has been made, and Barack Obama will be the 44th President of the United States. I am proud that our Nation has seen fit to elect a non-white to the office; I just wish the first non-white hadn't been a Marxist.

I'll be writing a longer election post-mortem later. There are some quick hit things though that this morning, I'm glad about:

1) I got to bed at a decent hour. Had McCain won, I probably would have been watching the coverage all night as a gloat fest.

2) Looks like the GOP will retain at least 41 Senate seats. Unfortunately, some of those are clearly RINO, so filibusters as a safety valve isn't a given.

3) Hopefully this will allow us to start cleaning out the forces in the Republican Party who think tacking left is the way to victory. Pandering to moderates and independents lost the election.

However, my last words on the election will be "It was Bush's fault", and I'm going to mean it. Barack Obama is the legacy of George W. Bush - a President who has been right on so many issues, but who has failed so dismally.
