So temper the enthusiasm with a dose of reality. There is a long way to go in this country.
I too worry that we won a battle today but are losing a bigger war. Citizens United + the Voting Rights Act going bye-bye means it's going to be much harder to avert our slide into fascism. Gay rights is nice and all but if we're all being crushed beneath a corporate jackboot, it's going to be a cold comfort to think we're all equal in our enslavement.
