An interesting comment over at Red States. I got fed up over there a while back, but thought I'd dip back in today. The context is, of course, Harriet, and the idea that dems and GOPers will come together to oppose her.
You are hoping for a coalition to ensure that qualified folks are put in important positions instead of political cronies?
Where have you been? The viscious polarization that has occurred since 00 in this country has been, IMHO, deliberately engineered to insure that such coalitions can not form as check on the power of a runaway government. They've got us too busy hating each other and being sure that nothing that the other side says or does is ever worthy of support, to even question what they are doing. And anyone who has tried to sound the warning bell or imply that the Emperor has no clothes is branded a RINO or a DINO or a traitor depending on which side you are on. Politics is now more about deriding the other side, and defending your own guy no matter what, than putting forth sound policy arguments or actually governing.
