Five years ago, a friend co-wrote a book called "It's Even Worse Than It Looks."

It was about the gridlock in the US Congress caused (mostly) by Republican ideological extremism.

I wonder what his next book will be called?

Maybe "Could It Get Any Worse Than This?" Or maybe, "OK, Now it's REALLY Worse."

Any suggestions? I'll pass them on!

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
