When great political parties begin to cool in their attachments without softening their hatreds, and at last reach the point of wishing less to succeed than to prevent the success of their opponents, one should prepare for servitude—the master is near.

The ever-prescient Alexis de Tocqueville predicting one way that party politics in America might crumble.

In other words, when political parties start arguing for their supremacy based on the opposing parties faults trouble is near. Oh wait, we are already there. How many times have you heard someone say, “Yeah, Obama isn’t great, but I really don’t like Romney. Obama is the lesser of two evils!”?
