[Mr. Mulliner]

Sorry, I misunderstood your statement. But I stand by what I said. I'm not saying what side of the fence people will jump on. Some will jump on the lefties' side, but more, I suspect, will be firmly behind the war effort and out for revenge.

fair enough. my thinking is that anyone claiming to be a fence sitter is dishonest at this point. it is like Hilary Clinton trying to thread the needle, being for/against this war. those claiming to be fence sitters still are mostly frightened liberals. (Of course, there are some conservatives against the war, too.)

your main point stands -- decent people will steel themselves further for victory
