How close are we
to a physically divided country as opposed to the spiritually and politically divided country that we are today?

2. I don't think we are that close
I think we have a pundit clase that is interested in portraying these divisions as being greater than they are. But we got Liberals living in the red states and Conservatives living in the blue stakes. There's no practical way to divide the too.

6. I think the change will happen quickly

Scared people turn to violence.
When things break down it will not take long
before we descend into chaos.
Unfortunately, I fear it will be
poor repukes killing
poor Democrats. People like Bush and his buddies will
be totally insulated from the violence.

Kerry failed to take a stand when he should have.
I believe that was our last chance for a meaningful
(not violent) confrontation between good and evil.

3. watch Bush approval numbers
When they drop below 40, I think the right will get physical to hold on to power.
