Where's that muzzle?
Elizabeth Edwards, wife of VP candidate John Edwards, says there won't be any riots after the elections... as long as they win...
Unfortunately, she has a point. Why do I say that? Honestly, well... Republicans are more civil than Democrats. Before anyone starts harping on me, think about it. What has been happening lately? Voters intimidated while in line for early voting- it was the Dems doing the intimidation. Campaign offices broken into? It was GOP offices. When protesters get violent, it is with rare exception liberal protesters who lose their cool. It's not that I'm trying to say bad things about them. It's just the way it is.
So, yes, if Bush wins, there might be riots. That doesn't mean that she was responsible in her actions by saying that. She SHOULD have condemned all acts of violence and promoted the ideals of the election process. She SHOULD have said that the Kerry/Edwards campaign would respect the will of the people. But I guess that was just asking too much.
UPDATE: (via IMAO) Evidently Mrs. Edwards spends a lot of time at DU. Why does that not surprise me?
