[Democrats] bought into this storyline that there was a need for bipartisan. The Republicans never intended anything resembling bipartisanship, not on this issue, not on any other issue.
But why is it always Democrats that have to be bipartisan. While the Republican Party has shifted further and further to the right, it is always Democrats that have to be bipartisan.
We think it has something to do with this last post. That is, that Democrats love playing Defense. And confuse playing offense with getting angry, and using harsh words. And it has something to do with the media.
