Good. Ohio, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Virginia... it's a great result. Not to mention the marriage initiatives in Maryland, Maine, Minnesota, and Washington State. This turned out to be a great and significant election.<br /><br />Thanks for all the comments from the U.S., Canada, France, and the UK. (I also got private comments from Australia.)
