Strategic Thinking... [View all]
I go to a hair salon, which is owned/run by a very liberal friend of mine. So we inevitably talk about Agent Orange and all that nonsense.
He wants Agent Orange to last at least until the 2018 election. If he fails too early, Repugs could recover, and we might not be able to get a majority in the house. He thinks prolonged pain will in the end help Democrats regain the upper hand.
Me - I don't know. Part of me wants to see him go down in flames fast, but that is more for personal satisfaction. Strategically, it might be better if he lasts into the election cycle...
What do others think?
