They're becoming a mob

The McCain/Palin sign in the front yard had BIGOT spray painted on it. Both sides showing tons of class here.

It's so sad that so many are willing to trample American freedoms, thinking that somehow it will help their side win.

It's nothing new. This sort of thing happened in the last election.

Sign of the times. I don't know that the nation has been so divided in my lifetime.

I truly hope Obama wins, but also, I fear for him if he does. This will not stop me from voting in what I believe to be a pivotally important election, but Fabulous is right. With weeks to go, it sure is starting to turn ugly out there.

(and despite my comments in other threads, I have not, and would not commit an act of violence in support of a political candidate...mostly that's me venting my frustrations and feeling my years...I turned 40 not long ago... )

Yeah, this is bit paranoid, folks. This sort of thing happens all the time, on both sides.

Bah, this is nothing. You should have been here during Vietnam. Ohio National Guardsmen shooting students at Kent State. Jackson State students being shot by cops for swearing. Cops being assassinated while patrolling. Government buildings being bombed. Patty Hearst being kidnapped, radicalized and joining her captors in robbing banks.

I was born in '68, so was too young. From the sounds of it though, I wouldn't have liked it.

Unfortunately, there are no clean hands these days, and no outcomes without severe bitterness from one group or the other. Ah well, maybe in 2012, if only for the end of the world.

Dems were crazed in 00 and 04, I can't imagine the froth if they blow this one.

In my mind, harrasing people over election, vandalizing and attacking them because of who they are going to vote is a crime that shoudl be punished with mandatory jail time. Voter intimidation is very very very serious IMO and should not be taken lightly.

We've never had a black nominee before.

People on my side said "George Bush isn't MY President" which really wasn't true, and no one got all revolutionary about it.

People may say "Barack Obama isn't my President" and then try to do something about it.

Seeing some of the crowds that the McCain campaign talks to is really starting to worry me, it seems nothing short of Nazi rallies with a mid west or southern twist. Scares the heck out of me.

[SlowwHand]

Wow. Midwest is lumped in there now? I'd say you're as Nazi as anyone.
