Civil war is not a certainty just a pipe dream. It is an anathema to any true American Conservative or American Patriot. We Americans been there did that. If this passes then the thing to do is call for its repeal and elect congress critters that will do it. That is being an true American Patriot and American Conservative.

I sense there is not enough agreement or solidarity to even accomplish that...

I agree with you that Civil War will not happen in this country if these grievances are redressed through the electoral process but if that becomes undoable as it did in the 1860s the possibility of armed conflict is a reality no matter how much people loathe it. The Union and Confederacy were loathe to do it themselves. The Tea Party movement and powerful revival of Constitutional conservatism that is sweeping the country is the kind of thing where forces can organize around and become the springboard for war.
