By displaying the opposing political stances of two mainstream senators who are alike in age, education, career changes, and other attributes, Professor Lamb shows how "reasonable disagreement" can lead to unreasonable consequences: how a Congress pursuing its Constitutional duties can produce policy stalemate and voter alienation. |
