I'm Here To Pick Up My Car

Attendant: This ticket's three years old!

Luther: Yeah... I've been BUSY!

So begins the return to the Moose-Blog.

It's a lot of fun being a Precinct Captain, but it's a lot of work, too. And since Election Day, it's been all about the decompressing—and the rallying for close Senate races, and the calling Senators to do the right thing on a host of issues, and the just soaking it all in.

President-Elect Obama.

Sounds nice, heh?

Thanks to everyone who helped in any way to accomplish all that we have done as progressives over these last four years, though I think what the right-wing has done deserves much of the credit, too. For writing this, back in November of 2004, I feel like bragging on myself just a bit; thanks for indulging me.

But there's still plenty of work left to do. California voters ignored this post I put up in November 2004 (the day after the last one I linked). Our Senators think Joe Lieberman is the best person to chair the Homeland Security Committee. Iowa still has the dreaded troll Steve King.

But I have faith in America, and with a couple years' effort, I think we can fix all those issues, and more.

Oh, and another one: Vice-President-Elect Joe Biden.

And, filibuster-proof majority. Well, close enough, and maybe, just maybe, for real.
