28. We won because we were the pretty blond in the room...
I posted about this strategy over a year ago. All we had to do was shut up and let them fall apart. We did it; they did it, and we won. Because their strategy of silencing us and making sure we got zero credit for anything backfired. They made it so clear that Washington was a one party town that when the fit hit the shan, we were standing in the clear. Not only did we not get any credit for what was happening, we didn't get the blame, either.

Welcome back to checks and balances, folks.
