...secrecy and action: the Map Room. On the White House ground floor--dim, guarded, with no carpets that could tangle the wheels of F.D.R.'s wheelchair--the Map Room had been the trophy room, a small area for official gifts to the First Couple. Roosevelt had ordered the secure chamber after admiring Winston Churchill's portable map ensemble, brought to the White House when he first visited, just after Pearl Harbor.

If the Democrats gain just six seats in the House, they will end their exile from the Speaker's chair and take back the chamber they controlled for 40 years.
