Shambles, I agree with you. I think this process is wonderful. Voters have had to wake up.I think the American public seems to like gridlock. They always manage to vote in favor of it. One theory advanced is that it keeps one party or president from becoming too powerful.
One mandate for this election is that the people may that want partisanship and bickering. Well at least it keeps the public informed and not snoozing in front of TV re-runs.
