The top leaders of both parties along with their major supporters, I believe, have been making deals behind the scenes for many years. They set the parameters of the debate, just enough differences so that the voters in both parties think that they are getting what they want but not enough to make any real changes. And no matter how much they rant at each other there has to be an agreement on what the final outcome will be. The Democrats get to achieve what they want because they are the more activists of the parties and the Republicans get the protest vote of those conservative who are angered by the liberals. This is political theater.

Like professional wrestling, except wresting is unlikely to destroy the nation.
