I'm sure there's probably a lot of truth in that Edward. In trying to keep from getting the boot and staying ot, I'll say that ol Abe wasn't the first or only to dip his pen into the inkwell before he placed that hand on the Bible. In some cases, it makes sense the potus in waiting would be in the 'loop' but this is a bit more than the usual "Need to know" stuff. I'm wondering if Scott and/or others were consulting Lincoln up to the moment he took the oath of office because they were not getting the answers or the orders they wanted from the exiting potus.
