Yeah, you're right. We get pretty myopic around election times and forget how ugly it truly got 4 years before. The far left definitely went extreme 4 years ago, and we be seeing a lot more of that now if Obama was down. That's not to say there isn't going to be even worse things coming from the far right as we get closer to the end, and if Obama gets elected. It will probably get worse.
