Bully Pulpit

The term "bully pulpit" stems from President Theodore Roosevelt's reference to the White House as a "bully pulpit," meaning a terrific platform from which to persuasively advocate an agenda. Roosevelt often used the word "bully" as an adjective meaning superb/wonderful. The Bully Pulpit features news, reasoned discourse, opinion and some humor.

RE: A compromised party

Steve Brenneis opines:

If everyone keeps saying this, maybe someone will get the message:

The solution to this whole problem is to repeal the seventeenth amendment. States regain their rights, US Senators stop acting like rock stars, the political dialog gets elevated back to the business of the people.

I hope I live to see it, but I'm not holding my breath.
