A Happy Thought

The Washington Examiner's Michael Barone writes about the challenges facing both major political parties. I believe COTTonLINE readers will enjoy his conclusion.

Republicans have a chance of emerging from their gathering storm with an attractive nominee and plausible policies. Democrats seem likely to emerge from theirs with Hillary Clinton and policies dictated by an incumbent contemptuous of public opinion on issues like Syrian refugees and gun control - and a world that seems to be spinning out of control.

If Barone doesn't leave a grin on your face with that summary, you are an unusual COTTonLINE reader.
