If Romney loses...

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

How will the reaction on this board be?

Is this you usual Obama Hack Troll question? 

If Obama were to win, I'm sure all the Obama Hack college students here will be unemployed at graduation or joining the peace corps to get away from the US economy. 

...and the Romney hacks will commit mass suicide to avoid the socialist (as soon as they actually understand what that means) hell-hole that awaits them?

No... there will be some wailing and gnashing of teeth... but in the end people will get on with their lives.

Don't make such a silly generalization, there's mean-spiritedness in both sides...

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

This place tends to attract people, generally very young, who are highly enthusiastic, on both sides but find relating to other people's viewpoints next to impossible. But now my circle is a mix of people from across the spectrum, and we all get along. We might argue... but we respect each other as friends and anything heated evaporates quickly.

As someone who was a teenage conservative, but shifted away from it as I got older, I certainly understand how a person comes to different conclusions to me... but often that comes as a result of time and exposure... or you know, manners.

I also think we tend to not notice how obnoxious our 'own people' can be, when we might agree with them. I don't think any side is without blemish, nor is there any side that does it less often, so as objective as I'm able to be I think you might be a little sensitive to how some of the left respond to talking points, especially when they too can be charged and often delivered ad nauseum. It's just part and parcel of the mix of personalities and issues this place attracts.
