Such desperation from the Shrillery camp, that they now seek validation from the GOP.

if you are a politician who wants to win elections, you always try and seek validation from the other side. some people like a state of permanent polarization, but there was a time when people courted the other side actively to get deals done. it will be nice to return to that time. that's hardly desperation. only hardened tea party zealots and no compromise bernieheads will call that desperation.

Sadly, the divisive and demeaning nature of contemporary politics has even spread deep into the Jewish community, where the loudest, most partisan voices tend to drown out reasoned discussion of issues and candidates.
Senator Moynihan, the only man to work on the subcabinet or cabinet level for four consecutive United States Presidents—two Democrats and two Republicans—used to speak fondly of how Presidents Eisenhower and Johnson called on the leaders of the other party for “a drink and a deal” and then inform their own party leadership in Congress of what “I worked out with the other side.”
Of course, they disagreed on many things, just as Ronald Regan and Tip O’Neil did, but they understood that country comes before party, or as President Reagan famously quipped “you can get anything you want done in this town if you will settle for 70 percent of what you want.”

You're the one who has called the GOP senators all kinds of names, Il Professore. For you to tout this, is desperation from you as well.
