This, too, will pass

For most of my politically aware life it was possible to count on the Replublicans being disciplined team-players, while you never knew when the Democrats were going to suffer a flash resurgance of the feud between the dreamy idealists, the hard-core misguided utopians, and the just trying to get something to work pragmatists.

That's not the look we've been seeing for the last decade or so, culminating in the chaos around this year's Speaker of the House election.

Of course, falling at the last hurdle on the way to his lifelong dream couldn't happen to a better guy than Mr. McCarthy, but wishes for a centrist coalition aside I worry about the alternative.
