That wasn't anykind of political discussion. A political discussion deals with the behaviour of the body politic; we never even got to that. The beauty of politics is it represents a window on the big picture concerning the ways of man; the only thing worth talking about. The best description of politics is done by Willy Shakespeare; every possible political probability lies in his plays. So our political landscape tells everything anyone would need to know about what it means to be us; what else could be as compelling a topic of conversation?
