In fact, since virtually all of the John McCains of Congress have been swept from office, we have gridlock instead of action. Hardliners of both parties may influence where things go, but it was the coalition builders that got it done. There have been only a few brief periods in my life in which the House, Senate, and Presidency were firmly on the same page. The rest of the time was either chaos or it had consensus builders among them to get something done.
Seldom to everyone's liking.
But still better than doing nothing.

I prefer gridlock in congress. Everything they do seems to make things worse for us. Change is not a good thing. Unfortunately, however, the judicial and executive branches then overstep their authority.
