Both parties are broken, but in different ways.
The GOP's job is to represent the wealthy, but they can't say that out loud, and to win people to their side they necessarily have to lie and cheat and steal. Their business model is hypocrisy.
The Dems don't have this problem. They have no incentive to be dishonest. But they are incompetent because they have to represent a lot of different little issues, the constituents of whom don't give a damn about the others.
The Dems don't lie. They will never lie, that has never been their problem and never will be. The Dems' problem is incompetence, not hypocrisy.
The GOP problem is lies, lies, lies. They govern too effectively, by deceiving people.
We need more effective governing from the Dems, and less effective governing from the Republicans. May never happen. It's an underlying incentives thing.
One can only hope that the Rs as we know it disappear and actually care about creating a government that works. One can only hope we will have a democratic party that eventually understands sustainable government. If either happen before I die - I will be sooooo happy.
Until then - I am not holding my breath.
