A Disgrace on the Institution

Charlie Cook: “Increasingly we are seeing more members, in both chambers and
both parties, leadership as well as rank and file, who seem to have
little sense of customs, traditions, and responsibilities of the
institutions that they have been given the honor or privilege to serve.
We are seeing more and more behavior and tactics that truly bring
disgrace on the institution. Much of the same can be said about this
White House as well….There is nothing new about divided government; it
has been the rule more than the exception for much of modern history.
But how it is handled has changed–we aren’t seeing adult behavior from
any of the three corners of this House-Senate-White House triumvirate.”
