New Hampshire has gone Democratic!
Ayuh! It's true!
And nationwide, what a referendum this is on the Bush policy on Iraq. At least I hope that's what this means. Doesn't mean I think we should just leave, of course. We were stupid to go in, but I think it would be equally stupid to just leave, but that's another discussion.
I'm not very political and have only listened to a single 2-minute newscast, so I hope I have this right, but the Democrats have swept into power in New Hampshire. Both houses have gone Democratic, first time since 1911, the Democratic governor was reelected, and both Republican representatives to congress lost and have been replaced by Democrats (neither senator was up for reelection this year, and they're both Republicans). I'm fine with it, though I hope it doesn't mean we lose our status as one of only two states in the nation with no state income tax.
