This election has officially become full-blown batshit crazy.

An 18-year-old Marine recruit in Lake Worth, Florida, became enraged when his girlfriend told him she was leaving...and was going to vote for John Kerry. The young man, a vehement Bush supporter, took her hostage and threatened to stab her in the throat with a screw driver, telling her, "You'll never live to see the election." Police arriving at the scene were forced to subdue him with a stun gun.

Maybe it's just me, but I don't remember this kind of murderous insanity during previous elections. I know this guy is obviously a sick man, and that the election issue probably just set off a pre-existing condition, but it still amazes me how strongly this election has polarized people. After all, he wasn't yelling at her about leaving him, he was yelling about the bloody election. No pun intended.
