  • Sadly, divided party government, which we have because of the Republican House, in a time of extreme partisan polarization, is a formula for inaction and absolutist opposition politics, not for problem solving.

  • Gridlock is No Way to Govern

    April 19, 2013, Thomas E. Mann and Norman J. Ornstein

  • Ironically, Obama tried harder and longer than the results merited to work cooperatively with Republicans in Congress. He has learned painfully that his public embrace of a policy virtually ensures Republican opposition and that intensive negotiations with Republican leaders are likely to lead to a dead end. No bourbon and branch-water laced meetings with Republicans in Congress or pre-emptive compromises with them will induce cooperative behavior.

    March 6, 2013, Thomas E. Mann, U.S. News & World Report

  • Five Myths about the 112th Congress

    January 4, 2013, Thomas E. Mann and Norman J. Ornstein

  • The reality is it is not tenable simply for Republicans to stay in opposition for the whole second term of President Obama. If they are seen as the obstacle to doing anything to solve our problems, they are writing their own death certificate.

    December 25, 2012, Thomas E. Mann, Voice of America

  • What I would guess is the tea party types and other activist conservatives will heckle him [Rep. Scott DesJarlais] into leaving (Congress). He can expect a (primary) challenge.

    November 16, 2012, Thomas E. Mann, USA Today
  • No consensus between the parties is in sight after the election, and polarization has been exacerbated, not diminished.

    November 10, 2012, Thomas E. Mann, The Arab American News
