I should have guessed that

I should have guessed that they are friends, Rocket Man. Like your brother, McConnell is an American history scholar. One of the talks I heard him give was about the history surrounding the enactment of the civil rights acts of the reconstruction era. Speaking of 19th century history, a while back you compared Tom Daschle to James Buchanan. Since Daschle appears to be considering a run for president in 2004, it may turn out that an apt comparison is to 1864 presidential candidate George McClellan, who wanted to back out of the Civil War.
