Lincoln makes a stupid speech
I guess I had wondered what happened to Lincoln between the beginning of his legislative career, and his emergence as a presidential candidate. There’s a lot about his boyhood & growing up, and then bam it’s Lincoln-Douglas debates.
I'm in love with the phrase "poopstorm of political fuckery"...seems pretty appropriate these days, too!
