Surprising Quote of the Day

From Lanny Davis, counsel to President Clinton, in an op-ed piece written for the New York Times:

The best result of this latest scandal, and the hypocrisy and finger-pointing exhibited on both sides, would be for voters to say, "A pox on both your houses," reject the scandal culture and gotcha politics of both parties and seek new politics of common cause, collegiality and the public interest. The alternative is that most people will conclude that in American politics today the only standard is the double standard, and the cycles of conflict and rancor will continue.

Hat tip to FlexBlue.

Wow! Who woulda' ever thunk such bi-partisan clarity coming from Lanny Davis.
