Inside Washington, a political talk show (indeed, the descendant of the original talk show run by Martin Agronsky back before cable) last weekend included an exchange on the political life. Can't find a transcript (it runs on ABC's WJLA in D.C., run by Gordon Peterson now, with Charles Krauthammer, Nina Totenburg, Colby King, and possibly John Harwood the regulars (there's been turnover, Evan Thomas and Jack Germond used to be on with CK and NT).
The gist was amazement that anyone would actually want to go into politics, as mean and adversarial as it is now. The sentiment is distressing, even though the situation is realistically described.
