Then I heard an all-hands call on my helmet that I never want to hear again. “Sauve qui peut! Home! Home! Pickup and home! Any beacon that you can hear. Six minutes! All hands, save yourselves, pick up your mates. Home on any beacon! *Sauve qui – *“
I hurried.
- Robert Heinlein, Starship Troopers, page 110
Why am I quoting that book?
Oh, no reason:
Democrats on Capitol Hill fear Obama fallout
By Andrew Ward in Washington
Democratic jitters about the US presidential race have spread to Capitol Hill, where some members of Congress are worried that Barack Obama’s faltering campaign could hurt their chances of re-election.
Party leaders have been hoping to strengthen Democratic control of the House and Senate in November, but John McCain’s jump in the polls has stoked fears of a Republican resurgence.
A Democratic fundraiser for Congressional candidates said some planned to distance themselves from Mr Obama and not attack Mr McCain.
No reason at all.

A Rising Tide Lifts All Boats
Big Apple Infidel (Diary) Saturday, September 13th at 5:29PM EST (link)As JFK has been attributed as saying, “A rising tide lifts all boats.”
Team America has pulled ahead for the first time in electoral count in today’s state-by-state polling data on RCP (227 McCain, 217 Fauxbama and 94 Toss-up).
As the Dems start screaming, “every man for himself” the Fauxbama campaign will implode exponentially.
