I think George Will is somebody that said recently that the Republicans will not lose as a Republican that the Republicans will not win the election. I think it was a terrible statement.

The middle ground in Congress has all but disappeared. The founders intended competing principles and interests to check excesses and create a balance in our politics that would benefit ‘we the people.’ Gerrymandered districts and a hyped-up fight-night media offer a partial explanation of why we seem to have neither checks nor balances.
