We're not playing the same game. Bipartisanship is a fool's errand, because while it plays well to some subset of the population who, "golly!" remembers a time where decency prevailed, we don't live in that time anymore.
Mitch McConnell has proven that each and every day.

Again, in Dems' IDEAL scenario, wherein we ACTUALLY get a SCOTUS opening, we strive for a MODERATE justice.
Democrats need, need, need to learn how to fight to win.
