The Dems Did It!

When I was asked to work in New Jersey on Election date I kicked myself that I didn't knab an absentee registration. After all one vote does matter. But even with the beckoning lights of busy Manhatten calling over the Hudson I could do nothing else from my hotel suite here in Secaucus than watch politics over take-out. What a historical moment for the country, especially New York State! I thought I could depend on the Capitol Confidential blog at the Times Union to stay in the know but when that was hacked I turned to a tech geek at my old stomping grounds (Channel 6) for up-to-date coverage. By 11pm I was confident that Senator Hillary, Gov. Spitzer and Congresswoman Kirsten Gillibrand's early leads would take them to victory. Sure enough, congradulations to them and everyone. Now it's time to get myself out of this stoggy hotel room and off to Midtown's Sheraton Hotel to celebrate with the masses!
