To be honest, I was upset about last week's election (Maine Prop 1) but didn't want to write anything bitter. Now that some time has passed, I'm just left with a feeling of disappointment in the voters for being taken in by the fear mongering of the opposition.

In the next few days I'll have more to say about some of the ongoing issues (we can't let the quicksand that is the abortion issue in this country derail health care reform) but for today, just a link to an article about my adopted state talking about how hard this all is (and to me highlighting why we need fundamental change).
