There is one thing that the Republicans seem to want more than anything else, one thing that very obviously has to be on the table if you want any bipartisanship. And frankly, a thing that should've been on the table even if not for the Republicans. Tort reform. I know, I know, the lawyers making money from that are big Democratic supporters, yadda, yadda. But the price for refusing to take on even a mild kind of tort reform is becoming ridiculous.
