Quote:When you hear politicians saying things like "this is not the result we wanted" or similar, and that it's "bad for the rule of government" when they really mean is that it's bad for politicians, especially career politicians, and that's wonderful for democracy.

Yes, that is one way to look at it.  The optimistic way.


The pessimistic way would be to say that rather than do what is needed for "democracy" they will spend their time trying to figure out how to make the other side look bad for the next round. 

We've suffered through 8 years of stagnation.  The result is not pretty.
