and hear shit from BOTH sides, and I mean the extreme partisans on both sides, not regular folks who are manipulated like clockwork, that I will disagree with you.

The difference is that we do not have lockstep, for the most part, hard core partisans. But I am not counting on that remaining the case forever. This kind of politics can only get worst unless the pattern is somehow broken.

Oh and my proof, if you should need one. One of our blue dogs has already deleted his tweets welcoming the Sergeant home. Watch the Rachel Maddow show tonight on the repeat. It was all but surprising to hear that. It was like, ok, why should I even feign surprise at this.
