Thanks to the type of government we have, we get to "overthrow" the people in power on a regular basis. At this time, the political rhetoric is intense but well within our political tradition. There is an passion about it that resembles the 60's and early 70's when the current brand of liberalism won the popular mind. Now that same generation is having to fight for continued popular legitimacy in the face of matured boomers and younger generations who are not all interested in parroting boomer traditions. It's either a marginalisation of the movement or a transformation - either process will be VERY lively to watch.
