Maybe. There seems to be a focal point for all this rancor though, rancor that really jumped to a new level around 2000......yep, I'm talking about Mr. George W. Bush.
His pappy lost favor with everyone when the economy tanked in the early 90's, and while Clinton could surely ruffle the feathers of the ultra-conservatives, he was loved by independents and democrats almost across the board. Those elections, while cantankerous, where a far cry from what we've seen since 2000. W, for whatever reason, seems to crystallize that raving political lunatic that resides in the deep recesses of our minds. I guess I'm cautiously optimistic that come January of next year, we may start to calm down a little bit from our current state of political lunacy.
