This isn't new...been like that for years


Politicians are no longer allowed to vote their conscience or (gasp) support the people from the states/districts they represent. They have to fall in line with party politics and if they don't they'll never get support for anything they try to push through themselves.

It's a vicious cycle and frankly it's a bit annoying. Both sides have pushed themselves so far apart there are very few moderates in the middle who can be the voice of reason. We need more Moderates in Washington.

I've been saying it for years...vote out the hardliners and replace with Moderates. I don't care which party they belong to. If you fill up Congress with Moderates they'll be more apt to work together and find common ground.
