. . . to see both of these two political rivals working so closely and effectively together. It's a remarkable reflection of our democracy and an example to many other nations which seem to sometimes view their elections as bloodsport and their own political authority as exclusionary and autocratic. To see them cooperating for our nation's greater good is just inspiring.
