Take a little now, get more later sounds familiar. It's what's screwed the Conservatives for years, because we never get the "more."
No, they screwed themselves because they took a little and then dropped the subject. They never keep up the pressure. They remained satisfied that they got "something". "Something" for them was the finish, not the beginning. Big difference. GOP got "satisfied" with something. Dems never stop pushing, be it gun control or abortion or whatever. They never get satisfied.
