What's this?

It needs to be just enough in November. Years ago I remember reading about


one of the Roman senators Cato the Elder (it was probably in Prof Harry Dell's Roman Republic and Empire class...one of the best classes I ever took at UVA) who used to say at the end of every speech, "And Carthage must be destroyed."

The D's need to hit the GOP in every speech about abortion rights. Hit them hard and mobilize. The GOPers have done them a favor in Arizona and Florida. The D's need to make the pay and keep Trump out of office in the process.
