re: #113 OhCrapIHaveACrushOnSarahPalin
I think part of it is just being 36 years old. I am exactly of the age where I have witnessed the country inexorably moving to the right, without interruption, for pretty much the entirety of my life. I am not old enough to remember the times before Reagan, and I am not young enough to accept this kind of hysteria as ‘normal’, due to a lack of anything to compare it to.
Does that make sense? I think (moderate and liberal) people in my age group are probably the most disheartened of all due to this.
