The Fallout Falls on Rummy

The Democratic win last night is paying off already.

Donald Rumsfeld is out as Secretary of Defense. Does anyone think that if the Republicans had picked up seats in Congress last night he would be out the door today?

Also, Democrats have picked up this morning one of the two seats needed to take control of the Senate. Montana went over to the Democrats and right now James Webb is ahead in Virginia -- if that lead holds, the Democrats will have control of the Senate as well as the House.

There will be more to say about last night and what it means in the days to come, as we begin to realize what changes are in store for our country. But it would seem that things are going to get better in America now that Bush and his neocon henchmen have been completely repudiated.

(I'm still waiting for Ann Coulter's column to say that last night's results prove that Democrats are incapable of winning elections.)
