Not having your party in power seems to correlate with how likely you are going to start calling your opponents Nazis or at least it will make you yell it louder. If conservatives take over and have full power five years from now I bet it will switch back to how it was five years ago.

Also, despite Stewart's obvious liberal leaning, I don't doubt that he tried to make the rally apolitical, even though his audience would make it impossible for him. Intolerance from both sides are going to make it that much harder for politicians to get anything important and controversial done and both liberals and conservatives have figured this out, not just unbiased observers.
