Almost got violent again in Ft. Lauderdale
I had to leave after almost being attacked by a toothless punk who screamed that I was a traitor to 'my' people (I am white).
There were about fifty to sixty sign wavers from both sides tolerating each other, though it got tense a few times due to some uneducated, provocateur freeper types shouting 'socialist' or 'communist' and 'baby killers'. We got by that. But then this pseudo tough-guy shows up and starts trouble with me after I led a chant of 'USA, USA...'. Luckily, folks stepped between us and pulled us both back. I decided to leave to prevent further escalation. Now I am home. I almost fought with another psycho last night who called my wife a 'communist bitch'.
God, please let this be a landslide for Obama.

2. Republicans have been playhing a very dangerous game...
..pandering to low-information, low-education racist voters. They played the "Joe the Plumber" card along with the Meme about "The Blacks are coming and they want to take your money (redistribution)".

John McLame ran the most dirty, slime-filled campaign ever. The Reverse B Girl and the so called Black Panthers at the poll in Philly. And the night ain't over yet.

It could all blow up on the Republicans and I hope it does.
