23. "Always so eager to think the worst"

I don't understand that, either. Hell, the fact that people are saying that Wisconsinites aren't going to go out and vote unless the President, or the Vice President, or some other big shot comes there "rallies" them appalls me. This has been going on for more than a year. People are well aware of the stakes involved. And, if that's not enough to motivate them to go out and vote, then neither will visits from Obama, Biden, Clinton, or anyone else.
