I think politics is inherently divisive -- trying to take the divisiveness out of politics is like trying to take the stink out of s_____. You just can't do it.

As one dead dude put it, 'war is politics by other means'. I think it's equally true that politics is war by other means -- it's essentially a zero-sum game where the victors get to divy up the spoils.
