Is anyone else scared of what will happen if Kerry is elected?

What are they putting in the water over there, guys?

I'm petrified. Of course, no telling how long we'll know who really wins the election seeing that the democrats already have protesting in the works. I fear rioting and violence and all sorts of chaos from this election. We are so in the end of times. The only thing that keeps me going some days is looking for the day that the Lord returns and hearing of rape, incest, murder, as if they were just normal everyday expectancies will be no more.

How widespread do you guys think this kind of thinking is, because I find it pretty damned disturbing and would like to be reassured that there are only about half a dozen people, give or take a couple, that are like this.

Bah. I count this kind of silliness with what they were saying as Clinton's term neared its end. "Oh, he's going to hole up in the White House. He's going to refuse to leave, using the military to hold onto power. Just you wait and see."

Chicken Littles, the lot of them.

Yeah, I'm with Sharon on this one. I think the overwhelming majority of people in this country would take a Kerry victory in stride, just as they would a Bush victory.

Wars and rumors of wars...

I'm a whole lot more scared of the Republican reaction to a Kerry victory than anything Kerry might do in office. They've got guns, lots of them.

And they're all nutty as a fruit cake.

Well, not all of them.

Excuse me, but my dad is a Bush-voting Republican. He's neither armed nor crazy. I don't like this demonization of political opponents one damn bit. I think it's creepy, paranoid, polarizing and ultimately self-defeating.

Chicken Little - great way to put it. And so true.


I got a wee giggle out of this part of the above quote, though...

...and hearing of rape, incest, murder, as if they were just normal everyday expectancies will be no more.

I had to do a double take on that one.
