Remind me: Is the chief political advisor to the dude who let months of a Senate super majority go to waste bc of a desire to appear to engage Republicans, all while staged faux-riots were burning up the month of August? How'd that work for building an enduring legacy, Axe?https://twitter.com/davidaxelrod/status/1011417584753881088 …

4) If we measure how successful Obama was at implementing policies that stuck (ACA and Iran, among others), that policy failed. 5) It failed bc Dems didn't use their huge majority to consolidate power, instead choosing "civility."

So, no. The comment was not only not an ad hom attack, it was a direct response to Axe's comment to show how in the past such advice had proven to be catastrophically wrong.

I don't see where he made a general point about civility. What I see, is that he made a specific point about a specific situation. He's saying that what happened with Sarah was more politically beneficial to Reps than Dems.

Great! Which is why his past judgments about what is political helpful are perfectly on point! And those past judgments ... were wrong.

I guess where we disagree is in discounting people's track record in assessing their wisdom on certain issues.

The issue for me is focusing on their wisdom vs focusing on the substance of their argument. Anyhow, thanks for taking the time to respond. I'm appreciative. :)
