There is no separation between the personal and the political on the left, so in a swing state a sign in your yard marks you as a target.

The word “target” should be taken literally. Leftists will use any and every tactic, including vandalism and interpersonal violence, against those they deem “the enemy.”

The courage being displayed by New Hampshire conservatives to one side for the moment, we should expect dirty tactics from the Left to broaden and intensify as the campaign progresses. I often find myself wondering what might happen after the elections. In the event of a substantial Republican victory, might the Left “pull out all the stops,” hoping to get The Won to suspend Constitutional protections and processes and declare martial law? Or might a reinvigorated Right overreact out of a misplaced sense of “payback time is here” — ?
