Deja vu all over again
From a column by EJ Dionne in today's Washington Post about the campaign between Herbert Hoover and FDR:
Hoover stopped short of declaring Roosevelt a celebrity. But Donald A. Ritchie reports in his excellent 2007 book, "Electing FDR," that Hoover saw Roosevelt as "his weakest and most vulnerable" foe and "did not respect him as a political rival."
History is so much fun. .
