Why We're Polarized

Incredibly interesting look at the evolution of partisan identify and politics in America in a way that could allow for impactful change moving forward if a similar understanding was gained and respected by congress leaders.

Klein is quite clear-sighted and diagnostic about our age, and it is something of a (limited) relief to understand as he puts it that this polarization is not new, but it is also not going away anytime soon. Sadly, in attempting to appeal to Republicans, the worst he can do is say that the Republican party would benefit from having to get democratic majorities. No shit. And it ain't gonna try to do that anytime soon. For progressives, all this really results in is a clear and present danger and the need to fight the good fight.
