    When the Dems had all the asylums around the nation shut down, and all the inmates rushed out to register as Democrats. That was the end of the beginning. Or the beginning of the end. Or something in between. Then, there was Korea (before my time) and Vietnam (still before my time, but I can remember some of it) and the Assassination Season (two Kennedys and a King). But, the core of the meltdown was when they shut the asylums down. When the former inmates started getting elected to congress, there was no turning back.
