Actually, MarkG, I doubt this sort of thing will stop on Nov 4, no matter who wins. Bill Clinton is no longer in office and we still hear all kinds of garbage about him. Will it stop when Bush/Cheney leave office? I doubt it. We have become so splintered as a nation and a large number of people do not seem to have the ability to think critically (i.e. either prove or disprove) what they read on the 'net that I sometimes truly wonder what the future holds for us as a nation.
I believe the internet is the greatest tool man has ever devised. At the same time, it is also the greatest evil we've ever unleashed upon ourselves. The current election nonsense spread around via the web just confirms it for me. Sigh ...
