I have been reading, with increasing frequency, of violence being used against Republicans. Both individuals and campaign centers.
Professor Bainbridge has summarized these events to date here.
I find this trend disappointing and a bit disquieting. Is the Democratic party truly so desperate to regain the Presidency and control of Congress that it is willing to resort to violence??
Even more disturbing is the total LACK of condemenation by anyone associated with the Kerry campaign. I will assume that this can only mean that the Kerry/Edwards ticket approves of these tactics and endorses them.
Which brings me to concerns of a post-election win by President Bush. I do believe he will win. And, I do not honestly think it is as tight as folks believe. However, regardless of margin, I also fully expect a full frontal assault by the Democratic Party on the election results. At last count over 7,000 Democratic lawyers have been readied for this assult. Is it any wonder that trial lawyers are now the single largest special interest block when it comes to Democratic donations??
This evolution speaks volumes about the vision of the Democratic party for America. If their vision comes to pass, we will no longer have a government "of the people, by the people, for the people" but will have a government who will dictate "what the people can do, where the people can do it and how the people must do it". A stance that can bring nothing but ill to our great country.
