Partisanship in Washington has only grown worse over time. So how better to track that than through Facebook-like network analysis diagrams?
If you look at senators who voted with other senators at least 50% of the time and at least 75% of the time, and compare those numbers to numbers over a decade ago, you can see there is a lot less bipartisanship in 2013.

to 2001.


Sad but fascinating.
