8. I would prefer to see us win a game of chess

because even flipping the board is not gonna change the game.

But it would be nice if we were even TRYING to win.

If "our" supposed side actually opposed tax cuts for the rich, and argued FOR investment over austerity. Instead of apparently agreeing with the "other" supposed side that "tax cuts are good, and austerity is necessary".

But admittedly I have sort of a personal grudge against Harkin too, because I donated to the Fallon campaign to defeat Boswel (in the primary)l and Harkin came out in support of Boswell.
