I'm really beginning to think the system is broken. Maybe a two-party system can't help but disintegrate into this with today's "all media, all the time" technology. Someone says something in Kansas and within and hour, there's a soundbite of a rebuttal in Washington and two hours later somebody is ranting about it on their talk show for their ratings. It's insane.
Yeah, I would blame the media for that more than the politicians or the system though. I think most of the people political ideas polarized when the media became a source of ‘entertainment’ and not a source of unbiased information. I’m getting older and cynical now, but looks like the media is now controlled by big interests and that is getting scary. Once you control people’s opinions you control the country.
