Honestly, this election marks a new mandate for liberalism, even if the House is still Republican.

-Illinois ousted Joe Walsh and put one of the most badass women in his place.
-Hawaii elected the first asian american female senator.
-Texas elected a pansexual WOC into the house
-Puerto Rico is on its way to statehood
-Todd Akin's out
-Scott Brown's out.
-Obama's been re-elected.
-Colorado and Washington legalized marijuana
-Michelle Bachmann could very well be ousted tonight
-Multiple states have approved same sex marriage

We are increasingly no longer a center-right nation. We're a center-left nation with only the rural midwest and the south skewing radically rightward.

...And things look pretty decent for Obama in Florida. This is basically a SWEEP. North Carolina was the only swing state he lost.

Crushing, absolutely crushing, defeat for increasingly radical wingnut conservatism.
