Tom Kean is a master of politics.

variablast that is exactly the case now..republican voters don't see how fascist things have become you can thank the media for that

I hope this means you are voting for someone other than Obama or McCain- prove and display your disgust for the ultimatum given the American Voter and vote for someone else- personally I think Bill Cosby has the best economic and domestic plan out there today and I am 97% certain he will be my write in choice. Imagine 100M voters and but only 50M voting for the 2 jackasses on the shelf...that would be a coup.

Biggest obstacle is the religious influence. Do you think any evangelical Christian leaders will be happy with bi-partisan?

That's the nature of religion, they don't seek common ground. They just fight till the end.

I disagree that religious influence is cancerous to political discourse. Their forefathers determination led to my ancestors being freed from slavery. It depends on the issues of course, but religion can invigorate and strengthen certain social platforms.  If there was no religious influence, I would not be in Canada today.

Bull crap. Bi-partisanship is the problem. The republicans appease the democrat with more wasteful domestic spending. The democrats appease the Republican's bloated military budget. And both of them are very bi-partisan when it comes to destroying our civil liberties and perpetrating destructive foreign policy.

[Redfingers]

Well, my opinion is that the problem is that Republicans want a bloated military budget and the Democrats want wasteful domestic spending.

And as far as civil liberties and destructive foreign policy....well, shit, the bastards need to be ousted from office and we need decent, reasonable people in their stead.

Bipartisanship doesn't hurt, but neither does common decency and idealism.

Then don't vote for Senators!!! These two gutless spineless assholes are part the problem- THEY VOTED for the SHIT that is ruining this country....now they aren't even doing their jobs but getting paid all the same- that is government waste!!

Vote for someone else- anyone else. Vote Green, vote with a "write in" but STOP the INSANITY now and don't vote for the ULTIMATUM given the American Voter!!

oh I did trust me
