Yes, we can.

Tell me again which side of the polarization constantly wants violence, and then tell me who's good and who's evil. If Stupid is good, I'll pick stupid. But tell me with a straight face that peace is a mode of the stupid and violence a mode of the intelligent. Go on.

Well, I've heard something that happened on the Howard Stern show...an interviewer went into Harlem, asked people who they were voting for, and they said Obama. When asked why they said policy. The interviewer then listed McCain policies, presenting them as Obamas, and the interviewees said that yes, those were the policies they agreed with.

Stupid.

I've seen the video (mentioned earlier) of the march of people carrying McCain/Palin signs through Manhattan and the reaction of a whole bunch they passed.

Hateful. Intolerant.

I've seen the graffiti and vandalism at some republican/McCain offices spouting "McCain means slavery" and whatever else they wrote.

Violent. Hateful. Stupid. Intolerant.

I've herd the interviews of leftists referring to Palin as a b*itch.

Offensive.

I can keep going. Go ahead and say "anecdotal". That's precisely what you're putting forth. Is it unfortunate? Indeed. Is it representative? Only to the extent the above example are representative of the left.
