JB: "Well Chris, I guess Al was right after all. Substance and competance aren't what sells."
CD: "You got that right, Joe! I mean, heck, I even went back and filibustered the retroactive immunity thing - look what that got me - zip!"
CD: JB: "Yeah, I know. And I got an actual plan together - AND got it passed - to start cleaning up bush's mess in Iraq, make it even remotely possible to do all the stuff folks like Barack and John are talking about."
JB: "Well, Chris, what say we old war horses go back to the Senate, where we have seniority and actually have the respect of our peers (well, they aren't our peers, but anyway the other senators) and just pretty much raise hell?"
CD: "Sounds good to me; whoever takes over the Oval Office will probably be better than the disaster who's there now, and we've learned a lot about dealing with the real evil empire, so maybe we can perform real oversight, advice and consent, and restore the balance of power."
JB: "Yep. At least hard work in the Senate can yield results. This running around in the cold only to be pretty much told to take a hike stinks!"
CD: "I don't usually talk this way, but there is no more appropriate expression: Fuck this shit! Let's go home!"
JB: "Right on, brother. You go first, then me. I'll see if I can disrupt Barack's acceptance speech for at least a minute or two, just for shits and grins."
