Passions running high

Rocky Mountain News: Columnists: "In Sarasota, Fla., a guy was charged with actually trying to run over Katherine Harris, saying he was exercising his 'political expression.' It could be the first hit-and-run First Amendment defense.

In the same week, in West Palm Beach, a man threatened his girlfriend with a screwdriver because she wanted to leave him - and vote for John Kerry. The man, a Marine recruit, allegedly told her, 'You'll never live to see the election.' He might have had a better case if he told her she'd never live to see the end of the election."

A friend of mine (who's still in college) was told by her parents that if she ever wanted rent money again she better vote for Bush. It's been a crazy election.
