Quote: That episode makes me wonder, since the Democrats are so bad at being in the opposition, and since the Republicans are showing signs that they really can’t stand the compromises that come with governing, whether perhaps the American people wouldn’t be happier if each party were returned to the role that it’s comfortable with and understands—Democrats govern and compromise, Republicans oppose and obstruct, and the public’s business gets done, even if imperfectly. Right now, the voters don’t really trust anyone to govern—perhaps because both parties are playing roles they aren’t very good at.
That gets my vote…
