“I don’t think it would have made the difference. But it’s kind of like Thanksgiving at your in-laws. If you go, it doesn’t guarantee it’s going to be fun, but if you don’t go there’s going to be hell to pay.”
– Paul Begala, quoted by CNN, saying it was a mistake for President Obama to skip campaigning in Wisconsin.
Of course, I find myself often agreeing with Paul Begala… and I wish more Democrats would listen to him.
