Online Public Relations Thoughts

Republicans and Democrats in Washington DC are already playing the blame game, pointing fingers at each other for a failure so-far to raise the debt limit.  What they ignore is that voters don't care who is at fault.  They want action and the longer the vote is stalled, they won't get it.  Finger-pointing is a way to obfuscate a truth that neither side is prepared to give in, which is what they must do. The net result is that Americans are saying a pox on all politicians, conservative and liberal.  It doesn't have to be this way, but, sadly, it is. The partisan divide is a reflection of two nations each with a fixed set of views.  Messages to Washington are opposed and Congressmen are caught in the middle. Still, if there is will, there is a way to get along.  Right now, there is no will.
