Generally I feel it did its job for a short story; It could've definetely benefitted from being longer. Everything was just told to you rather than expressed by the story and characters, the conflicts were quickly resolved in unsatisfactory ways and the ending was just cliche which would've been fine if it wasn't for the story behind it. Overall, it was an okay story, good read but definetely wouldn't re-read. Don't go into it looking for depth.
like the way they were competing for the promotion while they had no chance (Taft and Roosevelt) while someone else had 100% lead (Wilson) Am I crazy??? Is it all in my head??
