“They [Republicans] do this every two years. They try to find a wedge issue, and they try to work it.”
Funny I seem to recall that in the 1980's, 2001-2008 the homeless, Social Security, Medicare/Medicaid, abortion, deficits were the campaign issues brought up, or rather 'wedged' between classes, genders, races, locales, religions, only during Republican Adminstrations/Congress. So many of the aforementioned 'problems' disappeared in 1993-2000...only to 'reappear' in 2001.

Yep, great point.
