I hope your right, but that's not what it sounds like to me.
Well, if he DOES try to reinstitue the draft, that would be great. Even the new Democratic super majority in the legislature will abandon him on that one, in a heartbeat. Guaranteeing his being a one termer on that issue alone, and fracturing what will otherwise be a very scary government wherein the Dems have the White House and a supermajority.

So, from that perspective, I hope he goes for it.
