that I think is important to keep in mind, and that I have posted about here on DU:GD, is that people in and around DC know more than is being reported daily in the media. Parts of this amounts to rumors and speculation, of course, but most of it is essentially accurate. Thus, if one can communicate with a couple of those people, be they in the media, or working as a staff member to someone in Congress, one tends to have a slightly different understanding of events.

Also, being able to communicate from time to time with people with superior knowledge of the legal system is helpful. For there is a difference between what is clearly right versus wrong, and what are system is capable of producing, both good and bad.

Sadly, I have none of these advantages, and have a terrible habit of speculating. Luckily, there are good people here who corret and refocus our attention.
