I’ve been scanning threads on this and seeing lots of new posters - all of them foaming at the mouth about McCain and saying they’re going to vote for Obama. I think I’m smelling troll-smell on a lot of them.
The same thing happened with Bush and immigration. People with their hair on fire surfaced from nowhere, screamed and spewed. The result was that Bush hatred became the norm here, incredible ugliness was vented - and no bill got passed, no changes were made, nothing got done, and the problem remains to be dealt with by the next administration (which I am sure most Freepers will not like). I think a lot of them, especially the quasi-Stormfront ones, were trolls. That’s one of the vulnerabilities of the Internet, of course, but it’s something we all have to be aware of.
