Attack. Retreat. Repeat. Political agendas are now as simple as shampoo instructions. Your best interests take a back seat to petty party fights and I'm bored. You should be bored, too... and angry. I've written about D.C. dysfunction in both parties for the Huffington Post over the past half-year after...

The 2012 presidential race has torn Americans apart like they were yelling at each other from different couches on a Real Housewives reunion special.
