"Stay the Course" no one likes a "Flip-Flopper"

[mbarrick]

The psychology of the masses as whole is not susceptible to anything hesitant or weak... their feelings are not swayed so much by abstract reason as by a longing after strength... and thus would sooner be dominated than supplicated. The masses, in fact, feel themselves to have been abandoned by a weak government and prefer one which brooks no rival to one which gives them a liberal choice. -- Adolph Hitler, Mein Kampf
