It's a great place to live, raise a family and do business in. It's also a great state to make peace in.

It's counterintuitive, but the most divisive arrangement is when the same party controls both Congress and the presidency, a situation encountered in eight of the past 10 years. With government unified under a single party, the minority has the least possible incentive to cooperate with the majority.

Anytime we ask them to put national security ahead of a lot of domestic issues, we're asking them to step up and make a sacrifice.
