Rachel, I hope you will devote a segment to an analysis of how the GOP lost the popular vote for the House of Representatives. I think it would help the Senate and our President in upcoming negotiations to have an awareness of how the gerrimandered districts of the US make the electoral college look like the genius of the fair minded.
Here's a happy song to commemorate Obama's breakthrough statements on climate change today. (30 seconds in to skip TED splash intro)
The best thing I have seen was Nancy Pelosi introducing the Women Senators and seeing them completely go off on the silly reporter's age question. Hahahaha I will watch that clip over and over! Age is an asset, we are all aging. That was just so funny!!! Since the election, each day that passes has started to build my hope for our Nation's future. Good luck ladies, you will do great things.
Rachel, I love your show and watch every night. In regards to the GAZILLIONS of advertising dollars spent by the "other" party and the superpacks with no apparent return...I offer this thought from an old (and now unemployed) ad girl: Advertising can make a GOOD thing BETTER - but, it can't make a BAD THING good! Keep up the great work!!!!
This evening Rachel commented on the seeming lunacy of the Ohio General Assembly's Republicans' quest to defund Planned Parenthood in the shadow of last week's election. It may seem irrational but they have big majorities, they drew the legislative lines and unless the system is changed (we tried this year with a ballot issue), the majority feels safe to do as they will for a decade----or as long as they have gubernatorial support. Had Ohio Issue 2 passed, the Assembly would be consumed in self-preservation not others destruction.
A song is here!
And now a Pink Floyd deep cut:

Pink Floyd is great, aren't they. I like the Division Bell a lot, though it is not their most popular. Echoes is wonderful.
I was lucky enough to have been a kid in the 70s with two really cool older sisters who liked good music.
PLEASE see if you can get George Lakoff to come on your show . . . . The only way we Progressives will EVER make sense of the fact-challenged Right is through Lakoff's frameworks outlined in "Moral Politics," and his more recent works.
thanks for your continuing coverage of women in politics, and policy implications on 'women's issues.'

I remember Dan Rather was on Morning Joe on Election Day. He was saying he felt Mitt Romney was going to have a good night. I don't care for him.
It goes back to his deceptive reporting in Dallas in 1963.
His legacy may make him a popular journalist, but he is no where near being a great journalist.
I have mixed feelings about Dan Rather myself. I did like his remark that Republicans need to enter a fact based world. God knows that's true. I am growing more and more weary of their attempts to ruin Obama's second term with their distortions and lies and obstructionism. Enough is enough. This country needs grown ups governing, not children bullying in a schoolyard.
