Who's a Big Winner?

The Dems have taken back the House, and have at shot at the Senate as well. But other than the obvious winners (Dems) and big losers (GOP), who else wins, if the Democrats do their jobs? Here are my thoughts:
  • The United States. I was worried after the 2004 election that the nation, collectively, wasn't too bright. It appears as though we do have the capability to vote smartly, we're just a bit slow.
  • The World. Any checks on His Shruberiness' power are good for the world at large; one never knows who may be next on his hit list.
  • Science & Technology. Honest, factual discussions about global warming and alternative energy sources may actually make their way to Capitol Hill!
  • Nancy Pelosi. As the first female Speaker in history, she's poised to bring the radical homosexual agenda to Washington. Thank God! The radical warmongering criminal tyrannical cowboy agenda hasn't been working out too well, time to try a new direction.
  • Stewart & Colbert. Their Midterm Midtacular election coverage was better than anything on CNN and MSNBC by far.
  • James Carville. If not for him, that bloviating gasbag Bill "one-armed-bandit" Bennett would have displayed even more arrogance during CNN's coverage, if that's possible (how full of yourself do you need to be to write multiple books on morality? What a prick). Fortunately, Carville shut him up for a few minutes with the subtlest of jabs - a mention of an inconsequential casino ballot initiative. The Rajin' Cajun' strikes again!
