It's a great shame that the Steelers Nation will lose some fans because Rooney didn't vote for their guy. But seriously, I'm glad they're gone, I'd hate to someday find myself having a beer with one of those scarier than hell "I'm going to burn everything I own now" freaks. At least most of them are in states far enough away that they won't hit me when they start shooting all the Socialist-Commie-Liberals with their fine collection of assault rifles.
