Ah, so, Ebbie! Okay.

Jack, just curious.

Regarding Franklin and Eleanor's somewhat odd marriage arrangements:

It seems that Eleanor was a brilliant woman, although not especially attractive. Her intelligence is probably what attracted FDR in the first place. Even though they had six children, Eleanor always regarded sex as a ordeal, while, Franklin was a fairly vigorous and passionate man. After the birth of their sixth child, Eleanor drew the line:   no more sex. So Franklin DID have a mistress or two. Eleanor didn't especially mind (it relieved her of the "burden") and she simply looked the other way. She and Franklin stayed fairly close intellectually, though. Both very intelligent people.

I'm quite sure the Right Wing nuts would whoop and squeal over that, but I really think the two of them could have handled it.

I'm curious to know what kind of hay the Right Wing nuts would try to make out of Roosevelt's having been a victim of polio. The whole country knew, and it certainly didn't slow him down any. I can't imagine anyone trying to make any political points with it without their being thoroughly ripped apart for indulging in REALLY cheap shots. I'm curious to know what form this might take.
