I have to imagine that we differ significantly on what represents "beneficial to the country"

Not choosing sides and being able to pick and choose what makes sense is the logical thing to do regardless of party is sponsoring it.

I won't disagree. But when one side consistently does a better job of presenting logical/acceptable/preferable options then it's pretty tough not to become de facto "sided".

It's kind of like my praise for Kerry's initial choices (based on some logical assumptions about the reasons behind them), I give a shit if he's a (D) if he's right then he's right.
