Congress Is Dead. Long Live Congress.

The Dems took the house. Then they took the Governorships. Then Rick Santorum's kid flipped us all off. Then Rumsfeld resigned and the Dems took Montana. Like, at the same time. It was, like, the best minute EVER! Now Senator Macaca has bowed out as well and the Dems have control of all of congress. Man, we're in charge of one entire branch of government. That means we have, like, a mandate or something. That means we can do what we want. Yup, no way that this could possibly go wrong.

Thank God this whole messy midterm business is finally over. Now all of us politicos can stop making impassioned speeches about how important local politics are and that you should go out and vote in a midterm election that is so much less glamorous because instead of 2 candidates we have literally almost 1,000 and get back to asking the burning question that we all really want to ask: Who is going to fuck up the country from the oval office next?

Not wanting to keep us idle for long, here comes the first oval office fucker out the gate:

Tom Vilsack, Democratic governor of Iowa, has announced that he is running for president. He's doing this presumably to take advantage of some of the national spotlight and while apparently ignorant of the fact that his last name is Vilsack.

You go, Tommy! Don't let all that pro-Democrat ink dry just yet. There's a corn caucus out there somewhere and you're going to be in it.
