Atrios...

I have mixed feelings about mandate-as-policy, but as politics it's going to be horrible. I find it weird that no one seems to get this.

It seems self-evident that any policy that invites mixed feelings while requiring a universal mandate is going to be politically problematic. At least someone else, though, seems to get this. I suppose that's reassuring, but somehow I'm not feeling particularly reassured.

Oh well, at least misery loves company.
