I always wanted to try weed, what are the details?

Weed Cafes in Boston MA?
They decriminalized posession to a $100 citation.

That's a long shot from making it legal to sell.

Florida immune to "Germany, Australia, Florida" thread titles ok?

My state is blue :)

Your "blue" state voted 68 percent against Gay Marriage.

You'll continue to cop plenty of Germany, Australia and Florida shit for years to come. Deal with it!

WOOT! I like to think it was so close that my vote and my mom's made the difference!

None of the major networks have called it yet, but the last batch of results have come back in North Carolina. With 100% reporting, Obama is leading John McCain by 11,246 votes, picking up the Southern state's 15 Electoral College votes. While provisional votes may have yet to be counted, it's difficult to see how McCain could make up the difference.

Norm Coleman 1,020,317 - 42%
Al Franken 1,010,830 - 42%
87% in

Franken lost about 3,000 votes since the last update. Still plenty of time though...
FFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKK!

Damn it. So close!

Florida and Ohio: You are forgiven.

Alaska: You have to go sit in the corner for producing such a fantastically, breathtakingly stupid person as Sarah Palin. She's an embarrassment.


Everyone else: MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!

i hope that most of the talk about obama winning in the next few weeks is not going to be about race. i'm watching msnbc and i'm getting tired of it already.

62%... but still pretty surprising considering we went blue this time.

A convicted felon is going to be elected to Congress. This day hasn't been all I've hoped for.

Though it looks like I'll wake up to Georgia slipping to Obama.

I did what I could! I can't help that this area is full of morons.....
It is a tough district.

I just wish Franken could win.

I'm happy but sad . . . Obama won & Kay Hagan won . . . . but:
-Bachman won :-(
-Prop 8 passed :-(
-Franken seems to be about to lose. :-(

Won the big one but other things went down.

It's been one of my joys watching the Great Lakes States (+Iowa) jump so joyfully onto the Obamaramamania train with Illinois. Makes me smile.

The Begich/Stevens numbers are extremely disappointing, but here is hoping they are from the rural areas... I could understand if they came from basically anywhere not one of the 4 big cities.

Not only that, convict Stevens is up by 3%.
Fuck Alaska . . . Let them secede. I'm tired of subsidizing that shit.

Not really, I have a friend, Eric Croft, that was a Dem Congressman from Alaska.

That's how I feel. Won big but many losses show we're still not a united nation. :\

You hate Franken, too? He's such an arrogant prick.
Unfortunately Coleman seems like a fucking slimebag. The whole goddamn campaign was a shit slinging contest. Terrible. I wish they could both lose.

I can't stop laughing at the Bush "awesome" quote. What a goof

You have to imagine Will Ferrell as GWB delivering it:

"What an awesome night for you!"

Cracks me up.

Are you talking about Stevens? I think he'll lose. And if he wins, it isn't just Congress . . . it is the Senate. That would be a fucking embarrassment.
