It makes no sense, and it definitely shatters my illusions about California. We're protesting at our local courthouse tomorrow. I'm taking my daughter. I can't do much, but I can do that much.Lucyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12414588542878811510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25499814.post-51318639293194813202008-11-07T07:25:00.000-08:002008-11-07T07:25:00.000-08:00Things have been... well... the way things are.

It doesn't make sense. I've been reading that there will be court challenges right away. Good. <BR/><BR/>But Obama's win softens even that terrible news about Prop 8. I've never felt more elated about an election outcome in my life. It's been a long journey since I cast my first vote for George McGovern. Last night, we closed the door on the past and opened a new one to a future we can hardly begin to imagine. A bright, eloquent, intellectually curious, Constitutional scholar in the White House. Does it get any better?robin andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13390482190562312928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25499814.post-41143057672681504832008-11-05T13:41:00.001-08:002008-11-05T13:41:00.001-08:00Neddie: My sentiments exactly.
