You see, this is what is wrong with politics today. If Burris is smart enough to know (that Palin was the wrong choice), why not take advantage of the situation to come here and have a discussion where he agrees with us – from the other side ?
Why immediatly snark against us if he agrees ? I know you guys hate the Delaware Way but that instinctive partisanship really turns people off too.
Here is why…
DelawareLiberal has always been, and will always be, less partisan than DelawarePolitics and that mirrors our party orientations and philosophies.
Democrats are by nature more willing to be critical of Democrats. Republicans can never break with the party line, because given the implications of their policies, rank partianship is the overworked pump keeping the leaky GOP ship afloat.
Over the past eight years there is no doubt this has been a Democratic disadvantage, but we would not be Democrats if we didn’t hold ourselves to a higher standard of honesty and integrity.
