The Chicago thugs are already at work tearing apart Joe the Plumber's life. They are working to get him fired, blacklisted, and his reputation ruined. They are turning out everything about him, from his finances, taxes, employment record, the whole shebang.
That in itself should be exposed so that the world can see what a dictator is.
And still the pessimist in me thinks the country has fundamentally changed over the past twenty years. And I'll tell you what it is. The Great Depression/WWII generation is passing away. They were the bedrock Reagan Democrats who turned away from the FDR-LBJ-Jimmy Carter statism and decided to vote Republican. As they die off they are replaced by the Baby Boomlet Generation, the ones who came after GenX. The Younger Boomers and GenX have been more conservative, counterbalancing the more liberal/Left Older Boomers. But now the mix is changing and it's not good.
We have to get rid of these Ivy League educated elites who have run our country into the ground and who are very slick at selling themselves to the rabble.
