For the sake of my own sanity, I'm going to have to stop reading.
A lot of this stems from reading all sorts of claims from Obama supporters over the past few weeks about how right Obama is to oppose any punishment for Lieberman because it's so crucial that we have more bipartisanship -- that this was the "change" he promised.
If someone wants to argue that bipartisanship is good, that's fine with me. But it's just intolerable to hear the claim that there's something "new" about being bipartisan -- that it constitutes "change" -- that the problem in Washington has been not enough bipartisanship, too much partisan fighting.
What political system are they watching?
