Who Will They Blame?

Friday, November 1, 2002

• TITLE: "Who Will They Blame?" The blame-game on the Democratic side will be the earliest battles of the war to win the nomination for 2004.

• "... Fall Subscription Drive ..." Here's the link to the page which describes the Fall Subscription Drive!.

• "... Stand-in Senators ..." Here's a link to the list of Stand-in Senators going all the way back to 1789.

• "... Bush Bounce ..." Here's a link to a column by the NY Post's Deborah Orin on the effects of a visit by the President.

• "... H.R. Haldeman ..." Haldeman was Richard Nixon's chief of staff who resigned (and went to jail) as part of the Watergate scandal. Here's a link to a short Washington Post bio.

• "... status quo ante ..." From Merriam-Webster's Unabridged:

  Status quo: the state in which something is : the existing state of affairs (as in political or social relationships) at the time in question.

  ante: before

  Ergo, status quo ante is state of affairs as they existed before.
