It's an extra slice of stupid to threaten the losing side. The Democrats have just demonstrated that they don't need Republican support to pass legislation, so why bother threatening Republicans?
The rise in violence is largely symptomatic of the downturn, I think. Lots of people who are idle, hungry, and angry, looking for somebody to lash out at no matter how stupid the cause. A desperate attempt to feel that one has some control over the world one lives in is a big motivator for a lot of crime.
