13. I would've expected at least one to flip.

But maybe the copy-testers said "don't worry, let it die down," I don't know.

This is a very polarized atmosphere, with all the major media outlets only focusing on the refugee thing, being sure to remind everyone that one of the attackers supposedly snuck in with the refugees, etc.

We have DUers, supporting candidates, saying it was a bad move, for crying out loud. It should be basic shit, no question. Perhaps I'm too cynical thinking at least one would back off.
