He pretty much said as much. If you're old enough to remember. the Democratic party suffered a rift during the Nam era.
In the South, there was a similar rift that extended way to to Jr High. It was hippies vs. rednecks.

As usual, a fellow Baby Buster comes to my rescue.

roadbldr '59 and ASB '65 used to do this a lot as well - but both became so disgusted at the shrill partisanship that informs both this forum and its predecessor that they no longer post thereon. Yet Odin's temper tantrums have never really gotten under my skin for some reason.

That's good. Being partisan is necessary these days. It doesn't have to be shrill, even if frank.
