We're awaiting a news conference at the bottom of the hour. New York City Police-
The Democrats just don't have a foreign policy that they're willing to defend, that they're willing to use to take down the president's. We're dealing with the power of suggestion here.
Why didn't we recognize how much it bothered them spiritually and politically?
