Things you liked about the 2012 US Election results:

1. Akin and Mourdock got their butts handed to them
2. Obama won.
3. The political ads are over.
4. Austin city council will have single member districts (sorry…there wasn’t much for me to like)
5. “We now return you to your regularly scheduled programming”
6. Senate swung ~+2 seats towards the Dems.
7. GOP poised for frustrating and ultimately wasted bout of navel-gazing
8. Maine, Maryland and Washington approved same-sex marriage; Minnesota declined to ban it
9. First openly-gay U.S. senator elected
10. First Hindu elected to Congress is really hot.
