All I can say ladies is: THANK YOU!!! I am elated yet exhausted, as I couldn't sleep last night; I couldn't tear myself away from the election coverage...the fact that you were at the forefront of this fight, pounding the pavement, making the calls and doing a good bit of the nailbiting, up until the wee hours of the morning :-), is enough to inspire me to step up even more. I'm thrilled that we were able to stop the clock and the madness of the Bush Administration, from stealing away so much of what should be our innate right to choose!!!! WHOOOO-HOOOOO! Ladies, WE ROCK!!!!!!

Hooooray for women's choice victories!

How about coming to NH and working some more of your magic. We now have Democratic Senate and House majorities. Maybe there can be some overturning of draconian measures that have been enacted in the past. Remember the Supreme Court hearings on abortion that came out of NH legislation?
Thank You for your hard work.

Remember when Whathisname said "Whatever happens in South Dakota, will happen in the rest of the country?" For once, he was correct! :-) THANK YOU AMERICA..... THANK YOU! Wow....

I am so happy about this election. I grew up before choice and before much in the way of birth control. I could relate some horror stories, my own included. People, to protect what you got you can't take it for granted. It is a fight everyday. In fact on a sad note women have actually lost ground since the 60's and 70's in the area of pay equality. Fight the good fight, if like me you are past child bearing age fight for your sisters, your children, your grandchildren. I believe that in the US today only one group, Native Americans, have a harder fight for their piece of the American Dream, than women do.

Congratulations to all, but don't let down. There is a cadrie out there who believe that their religion trumps everyone elses. Their motto, to paraphrase JFK, is "ask not, what your religion can do for you, ask what it can do for everyone".
We all, especially women, must stand up for their own freedom of religion, or we will yet lose it.

I signed up for a text message alert from Planned Parenthood and I waited up watching election coverage. Boy was I relieved when I got the message saying it was struck down....though my ringtone scared the bejesus out of my because I forgot I set it so loud.

This is definately good news but we're not out of the woods yet.

Whooo Hoooo!
Finally the main stream of America has had enough. The past 6 dark years are over!
I am still flying high over yesterday.
What we must do is to hold the new representatives to a high degree of integrity, so that when 08 comes around, we are not faced with the scandals that brought the heap of Republican cards down to ruin. They must form over-site committees that keep tabs on every one. They must address the conditions of EVERYONE, so no fodder is provided for Republicans to seize on in 08. We have won the battle, let's make shure we don't lose the war

I was so happy to relieved to see the news on South Dakotah. More than any other issue, candidate - this one vote was so important. Thank you to all pro-choice South Dakotah residents who took the time to vote and make such a powerful statement that is being heard across the country.

kung puwede nga lang na hilingin at tupdin na sana lahat sa inyo na pro-choice na babae ay mabulukan ng bahay bata, na sana sa panahong gusto ninyng magka-anak ay malaman niyong hindi na kayo magka-anak, na sana ay maramdaman ng inyong mga anak at kamag-anak na babae ang karumaldumal na ginawa ninyo.... kung puwede lang sanang hilingin at tupdin ay ginawa ko na. pero hindi ko kayang gawin. isa lang ang alam ko, mabait ang Diyos, ngunit Siya ay isang Diyos na may hustisya. ang masasabi ko na lang.... MATAKOT SA KARMA.
