Xs, I would've submitted that Peggy Noonan essay as homework myself, if you hadn't beaten me to it. There's no question that the lady has a felicitous writing style...

A+ for you also, WR. The Dems appear to be scrambling in desperation, i really really really hope that it is all for naught, come next Tuesday!
