2. Great news for WNC

I have waited SO DAMN LONG to see Taylor get his walking papers. I don't live in that part of the state anymore, but I was around during that nasty campaign he ran against Maggie Lauterer, around 10 years ago to be exact, and I am so glad this day has finally come. Booyah!

3. Wonderful news- great credit due to Dems getting out flyers and voters

I was thrilled to see so many voters of all affiliations carrying in Democratic voter guides to the polls for a change this time.

8. I had to use "the Google" to take a look at Taylor...

He looked "pinched" before last night; can only imagine what he looks like today!

10. Way to go Heath!

I am so delighted that the NC 11th Congressional District will now begin to take a new direction under Shuler's representation. This is a breath of fresh mountain air going to Washington, DC representing us, folks.
