So what you're saying is that there are people out there that still believe either party has credibility?
I don't know to whom you addressed this but the purpose of this thread was to mirror what I think are conservatives doing what they complain liberals are doing in the 'real reason conservatives are attacking S Rice in that thread.
I did not address the credibility of parties, only the mote and beam aspect of partisanship and in particular, here, the hypocrisy of conservatives. The credibility of the parties is an on going issue. On that subject, I take the view that we are stuck with what we have until people who find the two to be so incredible that you actually get up off your whining asses and create a viable alternative. Until that time I will be voting democratic as the only party remotely open to a capacity to logically reason. In that regard, my instincts and personal impressions will take precedent, in my mind, over yours.
