Election 2012 Reaction & News
President Obama's Victory Speech
The part of this speech that affects me the most is the president's words about his family. I still respond with wonder and delight seeing this family of color in the White House. They set a good example for us all.
Governor Romney's Concession Speech
This was as good a concession speech as I've ever seen a loser in a presidential campaign give. He is to be commended for it and thanked. I also commend those attending his speech for their honorable response to his words.
Gay Marriage Wins at the Ballot Box
Unfortunately, while the outcomes in these races are positive for the nation and its citizens, the fact that these votes took place ultimately isn't positive. Civil rights are exactly that, rights. Government and the Constitution under which that government stands exist in large part to guarantee the rights of the minority against the majority. Period.
Karl Rove Meltdown
This one is just for fun. I can understand Rove's worry. That is a lot of money that went up in smoke. As New York Magazine's Jonathan Chaite put it, "Repbulicans bet everything and Obama won it all." BTW, if you don't read NY Mag, you should.
Okay, let's move forward.

8 November 2012 addition: Jon Stewart's take on the Fox News-Karl Rove implosion. Classic.

Election 2012: Vote Obama, Warren
We are in the final 24 hours before the election. It is going to come down to ground game versus PAC money and voter suppression My gut tells me that Obama will win, although I think Florida will likely be stolen for Romney. (Those cards are being played out before our eyes.)
If you've voted early great. If not, vote tomorrow. And vote Obama. Romney is a weather vane politician if there ever was one. Mitt is only for Mitt and will do or say anything to advance his only cause: Mitt Romney. I've had my ups and down with Obama as president, but on balance there have been more ups than downs. And he's no weather vane.
If you live in Massachusetts, I also urge you to vote for Elizabeth Warren for US Senate. There are not enough words to describe how much of a better senator she'll be than has been Scott Brown.
This one is for all of the marbles, kids. Vote, and make your vote count.
