I didn’t say specifically more people who supported republicans. I was speaking generally so it would also include republicans campaigning for democrats. And yea I pay extremely close attention to politics and have been for many year. Well beyond the past 10. In college I majored in political science and have basically been obsessively read up on political news for the past 20 years.

I recognize that it can’t all be in one direction or one individual that is doing this. But as I said I wish more politicians in general were more willing to support INDIVIDUALS they can work with as opposed to only parties. The polarization of our parties has basically destroyed congress the senate is not a functioning body at this point. In my personal opinion having people on the other side that you can count on to support your bill and occasionally buck their party can be invaluable. In past generations that sort of thing was relatively common. Today it’s all but completely extinct.
