I read a post on here yesterday that stated some DNC hack "journalist" actually got up during the press conference the Reagan family's representatives had yesterday and sneered about who was paying for the funeral!
I think Peggy's being too optimistic here - if they make it until Wednesday before the dambreaks, I'll be frankly amazed. At any rate, I'll definitely take the "Under" on her prediction.
You are probably right. I think they are already starting to crack. Christian Iminpoortaste cracked at the D-Day ceremony by contrasting today's Iraq conflict with D-Day. I think the pressure of all the Reagan praise is having effects on all their messages.
