You are missing the point (nothing new about that). Not everybody is a political whore - true. BUT and this is where you are totally off the planet - BUT EVERYBODY WHO CHOOSES TO WORK FULL TIME INSIDE A PARTY APPARATUS DAMNED SURE IS. And besides being a whore, they are humans and they will have the human nature turf protectionism that comes with everybody's job on the planet. Human nature is the problem, not a party "label."
That’s strange. We have “party apparatus” going in all 50 states, and none of our leaders are political whores.
Again, perhaps your difficulty in understanding this has to do with where you’re standing. There’s a whole world out there that doesn’t look and smell like the bottom of the GOP cesspool.
