Short answer: It will start a civil war.
If you mean an "idealogical" civil war, then you are right. We have one of those going right now.
If you mean a real civil war or rebellion ... ain't gonna happen. Just my opinion.
Everyone is focused on the 2010 elections..the GOP will make great gains..possibly take one or both Houses of Congress...but I think that 2012 looks even better...with redistricting..where red states will gain 8-10 house seats at the expense of blue states, and Obama on the ballott..just take a look at the Dems that are up in the Senate..Obama may well succeed in “transforming” the GOP..
Civil war? And who would shoot who? This wouldn’t exactly be masses of people putting on blue and gray uniforms and attacking.
