progI can't decide if "All politics is local" is easier or harder to say when one lives as I do in EvoGayBortionachusetts the state that sits at the seat of The People's Republic of Awesome, and you watch it exert as much representational power as it can over the rest of the country, but it isn't enough, and all your friends get bummed out.

If that's the case, I say: don't be so glum. The pendulum of politics never stops and, I suspect, it's swing back to the center again.
