I've come here from time to time to get an idea of what grassroots democrats are thinking. As a European I wanted to get a more representative picture with more depth than what can be portrayed in regular media. This time around, however, I have been surprised by the hatred you see from all sides. Democrats used to be quite civil to each others. It is sickening seeing people dropping material from sources like Fox News and use it as an assault from the left. The world is indeed up-side-down.
