Fate is fickle, power cyclical, and nothing is new under the sun. Especially in Washington, where after every election the losing party is sagely instructed to confess sin, rend garments and rethink its principles lest it go the way of the Whigs.

Get beyond past to have a future
I can’t seem to move past this girl I recently split up with. I’m someone who puts all my effort into a relationship, and she treated me like an option.
