The normalized script has become "we can't even try because of the GOP." Which is just weak governance. There was a time when party foes would meet regularly behind closed doors and actually hash things out. We are told that Obama has extended a couple of invitations and been snubbed. I don't think he has made an earnest effort. If he were to make weekly unrequited invitations, we would know who was putting the effort in and who wasn't. I think keeping the public apathetic is the status quo that all politicians maintain once elected. While campaigning they attempt to rattle the apathy just enough to get people to the polls.
