The baking element in my oven started glowing and almost burned into last night. Is this caused from just a short in the element or could the thermostat have stuck too?

"almost burned into last night"
I am going to assume that the above was just a typo and you meant "burned in two".
It is not really a short but a degradation/crack in the coating on the element.
If it was just a hot spot on the element then the fault is only the element.

This type of problem can blow an electronic timer/clock/control board especially if sparks happen.
