I wouldn't mind if they raised taxes on the wealthy, for example. Hell, I wouldn't mind a tax increase for my income bracket, even, if it meant that the deficit would improve.
I agree.
Overall, I'm rather proud of the voters of Michigan. We re-elected our Democratic Governor despite a rather poor economy. I guess the voters understood that she was handed a piece of shit by our former Gov and that she's doing a pretty good job despite that fact.
And now that she has the House too, maybe we can get some things done...like getting rid of this pathetic ban on stem cell research.
However, I do admit some disappointment at the passage of the Affirmative Action proposal. We'll see how that plays out, but I'm not too optimistic about it having any positive effects.
Overall, I feel it was a good night for my State and a good night for the Country. And if we get the Senate, then I'll amend this to say a "Great" night for our Country.
