POLITICAL
Diplomatic Legislative
An unworthy piece of legislation
An odious piece of class legislation
A grave indictment of independent citizenship
Names of genuine weight on the roster of delegates
Signs of a genuine awakening in the nation
Deliberate malfeasance in office
A flagrant offense against public opinion
Indulging simply in pure buncombe
Logrolling schemes
A public disgrace
A blaze of popular resentment
Political fakery
Blind partisanship
An unfortunate deadlock
Public apathy
Under the old régime
In the initial days of the campaign
A shifty self-seeking politician
Astute diplomats
A corrupt public sentiment
From long association with politics
The real state of affairs in the nation
The last word of political wisdom
The pressing questions of the hour
Facts officially winked at
Recreant to a solemn trust
A sincere desire to safeguard the public
Refreshing to the people
Close to the heart of affairs
Hesitating at no extravagance
These recriminations go on endlessly
An era of good feeling
For political advantage
Scrupulously avoiding any offense against his party
One of the most prominent and potential among the leaders of his party
One cannot blame him for being resentful when the organ of his party flouts and ridicules him
He is quick to anticipate the veerings of public taste
It is regarded as a mere eczema on the body politic
The engrossing questions of the day
We must set ourselves to hunt out helpful policies
A stroke of diplomacy
Guilty of gross political impropriety
In the throes of an acute political crisis
A diplomatic victory
A new world order
Special interests
Political vicissitudes
Desirable reforms
Certain inalienable rights
Astute leadership
Political prestige
Leaving the individual decision to each man’s enlightened judgment
Upon the firm foundation of liberty, justice, and equality
Conspicuous in public affairs
