Washington Post: Election is "welcome news"

From the editorial page of Thursday's Washington Post (registration required):

THE MOST welcome news from Tuesday's elections came in Alabama, where incumbent Gov. Bob Riley trounced former chief justice Roy Moore, of Ten Commandments fame, in the GOP primary. Moore was removed from his judicial office after defying a federal court order to remove a Ten Commandments monument he had installed in the courthouse rotunda. Alabama Republican voters are to be commended in their refusal to let the judge turn his contempt for the Constitution into a path to political power.

That almost makes me wish that Moore would have won; at least it would have pissed off all the right people.

Naaaah.
