We're a very polarized country right now, it's Right versus Left, Ethnics versus Whites, Rich versus Poor, Religion versus Apathy, etc, etc.
Americans have lost their ability to see things as a middle grey. There is no middle ground. It's all black or white, no pun intended.
It started more with the Clinton Presidency than any other one factor, the Right savagely attacked Clinton, and his shemale wife, like nothing I've ever seen. They were merciless. Democrats now are getting a taste of what it was like being a Republican under Clinton's two terms, the outright frustration and hatred now towards Bush is comical in how identical it is to the hatred the Right had for Clinton.
All of it is ridiculous. Both men are flawed. Both have had success. It's grey. One is not just a "moron" while the other is a "dog". Read a few books by those close to both of them and you quickly realize that the Presidency is on an entirely different level of reality, and can't be pigeon-holed by those outside the Oval office.
