Who said it, and when?
In this election they will speak endlessly of risk; we will speak of progress. They will make accusations; we will make proposals. They will feed fear; we will appeal to hope."No, it's not Barack Obama. It's Dick Cheney, at the Republican National Convention in 2000. Just one of the many tidbits I've gleaned from former senator Lincoln Chafee's new book, Against the Tide: How a Compliant Congress Empowered a Reckless President. It's tougher on Republicans than I expected it to be, but I haven't yet gotten to Chafee's delusional decision to run for reelection as a Republican in 2006.--Dana Goldstein
