Abe Lincoln said, "You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time." This makes for a great aphorism, but it has a great big logical hole.
The problem is, you don't have to "fool all of the people all of the time". You don't even have to "fool all of the people some of the time."
You only need to fool 51% of the voters on Election Day.
