Where Is Political Bias Taking Us?

Editing American politics articles can be wearying

Some of the most controversial topics to edit in Wikipedia are in the political arena. Just the thought of editing even one political article can have a chilling effect. With temperature in mind, I'll add that the heat generated on talk pages by some of the political discussions makes temperature predictions for global warming pale in comparison. I know several admins who would go out of their way to avoid the area altogether – like purposely crossing a busy street in the style of Pamela Karlan[1] – you'd have to hog-tie 'em and drag 'em into that arena but not without a fight.
