coffin of bipartisanship and one more nail in the coffin of civility in washington. i don t think it s a construct move. i agree with what ron is saying, it s a manifestation, and that lack of bipartisanship and being able to get things done in a bipartisan way. we are just seeing with obama care what doing things with just one party can mean, that an entire section of the country is not represented. big, difficult, complex issues should be done in a bipartisan manner. i hope they work it out. we ve been on the briveng of the nuclear option before. i hope this gets worked out before they pull that trigger. democrats should remember that what goes around, comes around. they re not going to be in the majority the entire time. this could come back to bite them. and that is the message that a lot of republicans are sending right now. right now it does seem we are in def-con 1, to use some nuclear terminology here. sit tight.
