I do think that the Republicans are about to discover that fixing the problem is a buttload harder than taking a bunch of money from special interest groups and running ugly ads.

I just wish that Sink had manage to pull it off because now there is zero check on the corruption an utter moral depravity that is the RPOF.

Dig through the threads, dems took more special interest money that reps did. Reps still took back the house. :D This had nothing to do with campaign funding.

81% R want Healthcare Reform repealed
53% I want Healthcare Reform repealed
18% D want it as is.....CBS exit polls.

This sends the message that Obama sold Congress, but NOT the people. This is an historic Mid-Term Election. I don't think it will be repealed, but I do believe and advocate a revamping of this Law.

Are there state totals some place? I haven't seen any numbers on the amendments.

Far right on the NY Times link you posted, choose Florida and then scroll down. Keep in mind that Amendments require 60% or there dead.

Campaign finance is still alive.
Active duty military will be getting a tax cut.
Developers still control the state.
Districts will be redrawn by a system rather than whatever the current office holder feels is most beneficial.
Class size relaxation died, the legislature will just have to figure out how to meet the limits they were given 8 years ago.
The non-binding referendum that cost millions to get on the ballot to determine if a balanced budget amendment to the US constitution, apparently to save money, passed. :roll:

BOYD IS GONE!!!:clap:

Have you heard about Tyndall Estates? It's 19 miles of sugary white virgin beach with it's own airport!

If only the Republicans understood compromise, they'll stonewall anything that isn't a full repeal instead of working together to fix it.
