Yes I am happy

Yes I am happy the democrats won, but all it means is that there is a huge amount of work to do - a giant mess to clean up. I think Rumsfeld's quick exit was about taking some of the news spotlight away from the democrats frankly, and to make sure he is gone before democratic controlled committees could have dragged him into congress to testify.
The sad fact for me is that while the dems are definitely better at some things and by far my side of choice, not much is really going to change until money and television are out of the equation, and we get a third (or more) party into this mess. I would love to see the dems get entrenched enough, with a big enough of a majority, that maybe a few of these progressive types would peel off and become something completely different and new. Maybe it can happen - the netroots were a big part of this election, and I think the future is ripe for real change.
