    Obama on McCain: “When all was said and done, we were on the same team.” Sports metaphors are the least persuasive demonstrations of elite unity. But it’s all they have.

        Obama said that because McCain was pure Controlled Opposition. And that's what the establishment was really there to mourn, the death of the uniparty charade they all spent their professional lives sustaining. McCain dying was only the pretext.https://twitter.com/mtracey/status/1035919347896725505 …

        A One-Party System cleverly disguised as a Two-Party System. Trump changed that, thus the screams you hear from our Talking Heads on cable tv.

        Yes because “team” can only refer to sports of course. </s> Be less myopic and see the message as one that reminds us that we can all try to help our country even if we disagree on how to get there. That’s the same “team” we are on.
