    She is as inspirational now as she was back then.

    is she saying “pyrrhic” victory? what were the “awful” dissents she mentions? She’s one of my all time favorite people - just trying to clearly understand her meaning

      I didn't know the word "pyrrhic" before now, but it must be what she said given the definition: "(of a victory) won at too great a cost to have been worthwhile for the victor." Too tired to search for the decision now and find out what the awful dissents were. But it's probably not too hard to find that information, right. It's all public. (I came here to hear her voice and accent after watching some clips of Meryl Streep playing her in The Post. For me, a strange accent -- part NY and part....I don't know, upper crust? Almost British at moments.)
