BooMan reminds me that Democrats have been winning elections recently. One can be a bit sad that those election wins haven't translated into more positive legislation or accountability or an end to the war or... okay, one can be a lot sad.
But, still, winning is much more fun than losing! Every election between 1997 and 2006 felt like a tremendous loss. That sucked. It was rather depressing to be a Democrat. It wasn't any fun at all!
It's still not as fun as it could be. But it does indeed feel like there's been a shift in the country.
