On the bright side

As you all ready know, Obama is the next President, but the good news that not only the Republicans hold on the Missouri legislator, but we(Republicans) have a veto proof majority. We didn't loose too bad on the national scale. Norm Colman won reelection. But there were a lot of ballet initiatives.
Three states voted to ban gay marriage. One of the is California. This was a surprise to me and a lot of GLBT rights advocates. California is suppose to be the most progressive state in the Union. If GLBT rights can't win there, then where can they win?
California did support Obama. Supports of gay marriage bans demostrated that the can achieve their agenda regardles of who is in office.
