Thinking Americans - I need a Majority

New York Timies Op-Ed columnist Nicholas D. Kristof, with whom we almost always disagree - but not here - in "There They Go Again" writes about the Presidential election:

"If the Democrats are serious about governing, they should remember the words of one of their nominees, Adlai Stevenson. After one of his typically brilliant campaign speeches, someone shouted out to Stevenson from the crowd that he had the votes of all thinking Americans.

Stevenson shouted back, saying that wasn't enough: 'I need a majority!' "
