Joe Klein: “I rise to defend — defiantly, perhaps foolishly — the notion of unity. I know the concept has taken a bashing this past month. It has been ridiculed, dismissed, and rendered banal. It has been conflated with ‘bipartisanship,’ even though the two exist on separate metaphysical planes.”

“Unity has to do with principles; bipartisanship, with policies. Bipartisanship is a tactic, the product of compromise. But there is no bargaining over unity. It is a call to arms, a fighting word.”
