The Theory Of Change Referendum (5.00 / 1) (#1)

All this hogwash about being "above" politics, ending the "bickering" in Washington DC, ending "politics as usual", "uniting" the country is simply puke inducing to me.

For those who forgot, this is exactly word for word, what George W Bush ran on in 2000. Each time Obama says these things I want to barf.

If you want to be above politics, get out politics. You cannot be in a specific game with the purpose of playing a different game.

Moreover, no matter how you cut it, you win election to advance your agenda, not to transform the other guys into best buddies.
Paul Krugman makes a great case in Slate why partisanship would be important should we win in 2008
