Now, that's one thing I've found bizzare.  Why is it that the Bush
supporters are being loud, obnoxious, disrupting vote counts, claiming
that they'll never accept a Gore victory and all the rest, while, as far
as I've been able to see, generally, Gore supporters are pretty much
laid-back about the whole thing?

This makes no sense to me: liberals, or left-leaning centrists, have not
historically been significantly less nuts than conservatives or
right-leaning centrists, but that sure seems to be what it's looking like
in this instance.
