I guess as long as we are going to make sweeping and pointless generalizations, how about

YouTube - Woman stomped by Rand Paul Supporters
Colbert was talking about this- hilarious. The excuses this guy made for his actions would be pathetic if they weren't so funny.
Then I remembered that I am a Kentuckian and that redneck that works for the Rand Paul campaign is an embarrassment.

I hope no one take offense at this, but a small portion of the Tea Partiers ( the very bottom rung)--tends to be in a less evolved state than other human beings, a bit more animalistic in their instincts and approach over their more progressive, liberal counterparts. This group also appears to value using personal guns and other forms of violence, the so-called second amendment rights (but not for self defense)--i.e., as in the recent Sharon Angle (Nevada Senate candidate) comments about "how" voters should vent their frustration at the current staus quo and to attain their heinous goals.
IMO, this sub group of TP's really are really American terrorist when you come right down to it, I feel.

Got anything current?
My point is that Tea Baggers aren't condemning these actions. Rush Limbaugh actually went after the victim and tried to blame her.

So now all Republicans are Tea Partiers? :idontno:

I don't disagree with the point, but its pretty hard to derive that point from your posting.
However, based on the posting alone it still looks like a sweeping generalization to me.

At this point, I could step on a liberals hard head and dance on his body. Tomorrow can't come fast enough. Yes, I know that it sounds terrible so get over it.

Absolutely indefensible. Regardless of the woman?s intent, she has as much right to be in that public venue as Paul?s supporters. They have no right to assault her just because she?s holding a ridiculous MoveOn sign or even approaching the candidate.
Stupid: Paul supporter stomps protester at debate; Update: 2nd incident injures Paul supporter; Update: Paul supporter apologizes ? Hot Air

The tape I saw showed her trying to shove the sign into the car that Paul was riding in. The man who did the stomping got called out by those that were around him...did you listen to tape....still he had no right to do his foot stomping dance. But the young lady, did get what she wanted and was there for, she did get a negative act, that got coverage and she was able to tell her story on TV.

Tick, Tick, Tick. The clock is ticking down. It is so sad that I am crying for all you bleeding heart liberals.

After all this gloating is over, I hope some of the Republicans on this board will let us know what enormous change in agenda the Republicans have in mind. Tax cuts for the rich? More bailouts? Just what does this imaginary landslide mean to you?

Politics as usual? This is not a liberal forum. This is a forum for all people. You are just running scared and are trying to bully. I will not give you a pass.

I have been hearing "tomorrow can't come soon enough" from many fired up righties. But I believe in their excitement that they seem to have forgotten an important fact about this election-
Their vote isn't worth more this time around than the votes cast by the folks from the left or in the middle.
You will go there thinking that you are stomping a liberals a head by voting for the candidate furthest to the right. And liberals and those in the middle (many who are disappointed with Obama and the Democratic led congress) will vote for the candidate they believe seems to be the most sane choice.
Odds are the Republicans will have a great night- history tells us this because the midterm election tends to go against the party in control.
But remember- It is feasible that the dems could end up okay (relatively speaking) as a direct result of the way many on the right are acting. You could be mobilizing the wrong team. Time will tell.

...still waiting to hear what the great conservative agenda is going to be to save the economy... let me guess, tax cuts and more defense spending...

All I'm gonna say before the thread likely and deservedly gets locked is that someone that feels like they're got to troll or threaten violence on a message board is probably trying to compensate for some real... inadequacies... in real life.

I've been hearing that excuse a lot lately. Like this has nothing to do with the policies promoted over the last two years. I think that's short sighted, and I hope democrats currently in power (those that will still be around) are learning from the experience. Both sides need to act smart, they are both on "probation" as the pundits like to say.

Shopper, FWIW I don't cite the trend with disregard for the fact that many are very angry with Obama and the dems.
My point was that most of the eager angry people whose team lost the presidency last time around would have voted the same way in this election- even if they weren't so eager and angry.

Here's where things aren't so simple.
For some people, the policies promoted were socialist and were passed by a foreign born Muslim satanic Hitler who dishonored America and changed our way of life.
For others, the issue is with the policies promoted (e.g. folks who oppose universal healthcare)
For others like myself, the issue isn't with the spirit of the policies (I want universal healthcare) but rather with how the dems went about pushing them through and the fact that there is too much junk in there that negates all the good that was in there.
And finally, there are those who believe Obama compromised too much and should have shoved through policies like a single payer system.
SO- while i agree that many are not happy with policy I am not too quick to believe that this will result in an automatic right turn by the people.

Definitely, most polls indicate this is not an acceptance of republican economic solutions (people know little on that, since the republican party has been in the minority for four years), this is about punishing the democrats. People didn't like how things were handled. I don't blame them. One phrase sums up for me why people are so angry -
"You never want a serious crisis to go to waste. And what I mean by that is an opportunity to do things you think you could not do before.?

Well, they did, and people didn't like it.
