For the first time in my politically-aware life (obviously, since I was only 12 in 1994 when the GOP took control of Congress), the Democrats have BOTH the House and the Senate. I think my mind is just blown. I can't wait to see what will come of it. It's an enormous relief/sense of excitement to think about what the political news will be. Instead of "more of the same" and stagnating right wing agendas, could we possibly be ready to experience a few liberal improvements? Instead of just making me more and more disappointed, pessimistic, embarrassed, and sad, could our government ACTUALLY make something better? Considering our country's condition in '94, and the HUGE desire for new strategies all around, I think so.
(And stem cell research for all!)
