I’m sincerely not asking of you to take sides but asking you to rise up to the seriousness of the moment; move past the horserace numbers and the gotcha moments and the distractions, the sideshows that have come to dominate and sensationalize our politics; and focus on what’s actually at stake. I think, in your hearts, you know what’s at stake. The stakes couldn’t be higher.
Politico is a self-serious gossip rag. No wonder even something as tepid and innocuous as this, delivered at one of their industry's great circle-jerks, offends them.
