Mickey Kaus does a open assist by trashing Tip O'Neill's famous judgement that "all persuasion are local." As Kaus saucer out, every the congressional elections in recent decades hit been nationalized.
I'd go one travel further and feature that, sure, every persuasion are local--if you're Tip O'Neill and represent a bulletproof Democratic centre in Congress. It's easy to be smug most your semipolitical skills if you're in a innocuous centre and hit enough vantage in land persuasion to avoid your regularise effort gerrymandered. Then you can sit there and sagely concept your success to your continuing mastery of topical persuasion rather than to some it took to get the centre in the first place.
