No, Senator Kelly, fighting is not a good thing.  I don't want my politicians to fight.  They should be discussing, maybe even arguing, before negotiating a compromise where there is disagreement.  Fighting means that the politicians are too wed to the notion of win-lose when they should be looking for the win-win.  All fighting does is create a bad environment for compromise, increase emotional entrenchment and reinforce ideological divides.

If you wanted to fight and serve your constituents you should have joined the Alaska Guard.
