Has there been too much bipartisanship or too little?

The reward Joe Lieberman will receive today is justified by the claimed need for more bipartisanship harmony. Is it even possible to have more than we have now?

    Yes, and who still has a clear conscience. -- normbreyfogle

    Yes, I hear you.

    But, there are some who claim that even voting at all just supports a corrupt system and you should never vote. I have read highly educated men and women make a good case for not voting at all.

    I think that one need do whatever leaves them with a clear conscience. After all, one vote in this steamy swamp of horror is not going to ever mean much. (can't even get an honest count in my state)

    Even if your candidate wins (I was happy with the last cycle), most often he will greatly disappoint you as all have done for me for decades.

    So vote Nader. Vote Green. Vote commie. Whatever.

    Just don't vote Republican!
