  1. Bipartisanship (gasp) and the Ex-Im Bank

    One measure of the extreme polarization of the House is that GOP leaders bring bills to the floor only if they have enough Republican votes to approve them. With the exception of the occasional must-pass spending bill, measures that aren't ideologically pure enough to attract support from 90% of the Republican ranks just don't get considered.
