The Easiest Off-Ramp

Another Groundhog Day in Electoral Purgatory

You have no enemies, you say?

He who has mingled in the fray

Of duty, that the brave endure,

Must have made foes! If you have none,

You've dashed no cup from perjured lip,

You've never turned the wrong to right,

You've been a coward in the fight.
