...Washington after six months in Texas. After two hours with National Chairman Jim Farley, the Vice President spent three and one-half hours with the President, trying to tell him that the November election results were not (as a famed Janizariat chart purported to prove) a collection of local overturns, but first evidence of a popular trend to the Right, toward economy.
