I don't think anyone actually reads this blog, but I wanted to marvel at the difference in perspective right now on working across the aisles. Murdock won over Lugar in Indiana with the argument that Lugar worked too much with the other side of the aisle. Basically, he is arguing for polarization in Washington.
He is not presenting it that way, of course. The hope of the Tea Party is that their ideology will sweep Washington so that they can institute their vision for America. But if this does not happen, then the end result is polarization and stalemate.
I hope that the Democratic candidate genuinely takes a middle of the road line. I don't think most Americans want the extremes on either side. They want people in Washington who can work together and represent all America. I still believe that this is the majority, but we'll see.

I read it.
Too bad Lugar. Middle of the road is generally okay in Indiana. Except for strange times in the primaries. Whoops.
