Democrats win, Rumsfeld resigns

What a great day it is for the US and the world! The Democrats have the House, and the senate will end up in a 50-50 split, meaning Republican control due to VP's vote. All in all this seams pretty fair and democratic, the only fears being on how any actual "governing" can take place with so many "checks and balances".
I hope that this marks a turnaround in foreign policy for the US - although it's still pretty unlikely with 2 more years of Bush in the White House. A tight government might mean a more accountable government, if at least, a less effective one.
And great news - truthiness is on its way out, with Rumsfeld being "stepped down". The oldest and the youngest defense secretary (not at the same time) must be one of the most arrogant and despised figures in a generation.
