[QUOTE]Originally posted by glassman: [QB] Smithsonian Magazine has a pretty good article entitled [b]Election Day 1860[/b] in the Nov. issue... things aren't even close to bad right now, compared to that time... Lincoln didn't give speeches,or debate becuase in his own words: [i] And, now my friend - for such I esteem you personally - do not misunderstand me. I have not decided that I will not do substantially what you suggest. I will not forbear doing so, merely on punctilio and pluck. If I do finally abstain, it will be because of apprehension that it would do harm. For the good men of the South - and I regard the majority of them as such - I have no objection to repeat seventy and seven times. But I have bad men also to deal with, both North and South - men who are eager for something new upon which to base new misrepresentations - men who would like to frighten me, or at least, to fix upon me the character of timidity and cowardice. They would seize upon almost any letter I could write, as being an awful coming down." I intend keeping my eye upon these gentlemen, and to not unnecessarily put any weapons in their hands.[/i] [/QB][/QUOTE]
