No Moderates Allowed

Juan Williams:
“The death of the political middle is the defining shift taking place
in American politics today. It is ending the tradition of political
leadership that rises above ideology, region, party, religion and even
race to attain statesmanship… The Congress has become an increasingly
uncomfortable place for voices of moderation. Many of them are fed up
and have decided that 2012 is the year they will call it
quits… Because of the exodus — if not expulsion — of the remaining
moderates from Congress this year, American politics will become even
more polarized and dysfunctional. If you like the ideological extremism
and obstructionist paralysis that has characterized the 112th Congress,
then you will love the 113th.”
