There will always be some who cling to values not in pace with the majority. I think the strife and division felt now is far less than during the Clinton administration. Heck, Elzabeth Hasselbeck said this was a victory for America after campaigning and arguing relentlessly against him.

Even Hasselbeck isn't stupid enough to say anything to the contrary when half the population is orgasming over the historical aspect of this election. Hillary Clinton tried to paint Obama as incompetent and inexperienced, and then went on to back him. The same drill has been done a billion times over in the media and in politics. You can go against the grain as long as there is a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, but once you've lost the race you either fall into the party line like everybody else, or you face a future in obscurity.
