Democrats Privately Fear House Slipping Away
I'm reminded of a story told by Shelby Foote in Ken Burn's documentary on the Civil War, about U.S. Grant. Some of his junior officers were fretting about what a great General Robert E. Lee was, to which Grant responded: "I am heartily tired of hearing about what Lee is going to do. Some of you always seem to think he is suddenly going to turn a double somersault, and land in our rear and on both of our flanks at thesame time. Go back to your command, and try to think what are we going to do ourselves, instead of what Lee is going to do."
Will you people MAN UP, for Christ's sake?
