Why Bipartisanship Matters - Ted King - 09-16-2009 http://www.motherjones.com/kevin-drum/2009/09/why-bipartisanship-matters A snippet: Bipartisanship is in bad odor these days because it's associated with a knee-jerk, David Broderish tendency to assume that the answer to any policy dilemma is automatically halfway between the liberal position and the conservative position. But that sells bipartisanship short. Where it shines is its ability to allow politicians to make tough decisions. Re: Why Bipartisanship Matters - OWC Jamie - 09-16-2009 Cheer up Sleepy Jean.
