New Absolutely correct.
He does inspire hatred from about half the voting community. It is a major part of the problem: you can't be constructive if you haven't a real base to build on. He was elected by people who voted against their own interests because of short sighted, single interest issues. The slightly less than 50% will oppose him with a vigor that usually requires rabies. If it required a vote, he probably couldn't get laid in a whore house any time soon of course part of the problem would be that he'd be looking in a warehouse
Well, it's just our good luck that we elected a uniter, rather than a divider...

I think that's a very fair assessment.

We have gotten VERY partisan....and half the voting community (slightly less?) did not vote for Bush.

What I don't understand is the whining....this is NOT new. Certainly slightly less than half the voting community didn't vote for Clinton, and everything in BP's quote could apply to him just as easily. The other side was just as nasty to Clinton, yet they feel they ought to be priviledged for some reason.
