This Should End Well

"Recreate ‘68" threatens Democrat convention in Denver.

I'm all for retro and nostalgia - but are there really people dumb enough to think that this is a good idea? Not only inciting a riot, but telling police months ahead of time that you're considering inciting a riot. We're not talking about Woodstock 1999... where it accidentally fell into a riot due to $150 ticket price, rapes, mud and $18 bottles of water.

Al Sharpton has already expressed a warning of "Trouble" in Denver if/when the Convention picks Hillary over Obama.(link to something that has something to do with that)

And Rush Limbaugh is all excited because he knows that riots at the convention gives McCain a free pass to the White House door. Hey, it worked wonders for Nixon.

How do Hippies beget Nixon? No hippies? No Nixon.
Simple.

I'm not good at algebra - or much else - but here's the math.
Nixon is "X": the one guy touting the idea of "Law and Order" (ie cracking Hippie skulls in or "Y"). My grandparents jump on the idea. Multiply that by "the Silent Majority" = Nixon wins a landslide.

Reagan used the "I'm going to crack hippie skulls - elect me gov of California." They did, and Gov. Reagan sent the troops into Berkley to crack hippie skulls.

The difference is that this time around, McCain doesn't even have to say anything. The Democrats and their supporters will fairly well pull down the tent way before McCain bothers to open his mouth. Classy. Presidential too.
