Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for October 03, 1978
Transcript:
Dick: Dearest, have you given any thought to the campaign ahead? Lacey: Oh, a little. But I must confess, I'm not much looking forward to it. Running as an incumbent just isn't the same ufn. Remember ten years ago, when we used to have wine and cheese fundraisers, and I'd read Shelley and Keats, and you'd play the piano? Dick: Rather poorly, as I recall... Lacey: Yes, but do you know what made that campaign so special? What made it special was just knowing I didn't have a prayer of winning! Dick: You've been trying to recapture that haven't you, Lacey? Lacey: Sometimes I feel like spotting the Democrats a couple of wards.
