You're a poster boy for the problem

Robert — 1/31/2008 1:19:32 AM (archived)

You respond to any suggestion of bipartisanship (or nonpartisanship) with shrill partisanship suggesting a hidden agenda.

Sorry, but the only way I can see to dig the country out of the partisan bind we're in is to ignore that stuff, marginalize the paranoid hyperpartisans, and concentrate on people much closer to the center.

I'm not getting that reaction when I talk about this to other Republicans around these parts. Are you going to take the stand that you're the only True Republican around, and everybody who's willing to talk to me is a RINO traitor?
