At the end of the day, sounds like Loughner was anti-government in a mega-crackpot kind of way but probably not partisan; he encountered a Congressman who didn't push one of his magic buttons, so she became his fixation for revenge or liberating himself or whatever.

For me, coupled with the other incidents Rich outlined where there were clear partisan motives, that is still a major motivation for people to stop exploiting the "rise up against the government" rhetoric for their own electoral gains.
