This speaks for itself, really:
Hundreds gathered at Seattle Center for a New Year’s Eve-style countdown to 12 a.m., when the legalization measure passed by voters last month took effect. When the clock struck, they cheered and sparked up in unison.

Officers will be advising people not to smoke in public, police spokesman Jonah Spangenthal-Lee wrote on the SPD Blotter. “The police department believes that, under state law, you may responsibly get baked, order some pizzas and enjoy a ‘Lord of the Rings’ marathon in the privacy of your own home, if you want to.”
Washtington (as well as Maine) also approved gay marriage.

Dave, can you please provide us another post about how much smarter you are than Nate Silver, or at least a clarification on how Obama stole an election that realistically, was going to go to Romney by 3-5 point? I mean, you obviously know what you are talking about.
Silver guessed that the state polls were more accurate than the (much larger) turnout/affiliation/national polls by Ras and Gallup. In some elections this is true, in others it hasn’t been. Nate guessed right, I guessed wrong. Kudos to him. But his model is just a Monte Carlo on the state polls, so he’s not some super-genius as the MSM holds him out to be (and in fact he got several predictions wrong), he’s not really doing anything you can’t do at home with Excel.
Note that, as I expected, Romney won independents by five points, and is the first modern candidate ever to decisively win independents and not win the election.
It would also be tempting to point out Romney won every state with voter photo ID requirements, but realistically Obama almost certainly wins even if blue states aspired to Third World levels of vote security. The MSM and Axelrod dragged their candidate across the finish line despite Obama being a terrible President with a terrible record.
And that’s all the troll food I have, thanks for stopping by.

[Dave] Sorry, I think I already mentioned I was out of troll food. Please feel free to share any on-topic comments.
Ah – this is a “romantic song” – but it fits in so many other ways.
Hope they are right – someday, somewhere…for all of us.
And, Dave, if I were a troll, I’d be well fed. Especially on the voter ID tidbit. Oh, and that one is a tidbit for both the right and the left.
Oh – and just for Auld Lang Syne…and a HIGH five to those states that just stood up and said “just say no” to prohibition Don’t Bogart that….
I can’t smoke it anymore – allergy? or just that my lungs won’t take it. And I’m long past being into highs. BUT, I’m doing elder care – 2 with no appetite – and they both need to eat. I WISH they’d make it legal here. I’d burn it like incense all over the house and never mind my sneezes and coughs.

My favorite is still the 9th, but the 4th is critical to the rest.
There’s a reason that “your papers, please” is the catchphrase of dictatorship (and why TallDave’s Voter ID troll isn’t quite as off-topic as he might have intended it to be).
