| Grey Acumen said: Yet when it comes to McCain, Palin and Bush (with how often he gets mentioned, I have to assume he's apparently running for a 3rd term on McCain's ticket somewhere) you get so much freaking HATE. I mean, just look at this thread alone and compare the number of times people swear when objecting to Palin and McCain vs those that are objecting to Obama. |
You tend to get a lot of hate when parts of your platform are based on intolerance and/or ignorance. I'm not calling McCain ignorant or intolerant but a fair amount of the GOP's base viewpoint sure is.
It's not hard to stir up vitriolic hate in people when the Religious Right is involved in something. Add in the general public's extreme dislike for Bush and you've got a lot of really pissed off people on your hands.
