    Dan McLaughlin Retweeted Lincoln Belongs To The Ages

    It's always a good day to fire George McClellan. But especially after Election Day, when the Democrats can't do squat about it.https://twitter.com/Mr_Lincoln/status/1192439623877824512 …

    Dan McLaughlin added,

    Lincoln Belongs To The Ages @Mr_Lincoln
    Today in 1862, Brig. Gen. Catharinus Buckingham, assistant to Sec. of War Stanton, officially delivers the orders relieving McClellan of his command. Buckingham's grandfather was Brig. Gen. Rufus Putnam of Revolutionary War fame, and one of the main founders of Ohio. pic.twitter.com/axeUgmSkgD

        It always amazes me how many mediocre to awful generals Lincoln had to go through before he finally found a few good ones.

        Some of it was politics: he needed Banks & Fremont for Republican support, & needed McClellan & Butler because they were Dems. But McClellan was just awful, & Pope & Wheeler were not good either.

        Still shake my head over McClellan getting a copy of Lee's orders to his generals at Antietam and sitting on it for a full day, giving Lee time to adjust. If he'd acted immediately like Grant would've, he could've routed Lee and won the war. He made cautious men look reckless.

        Hooker later performed well at Chattanooga, if I recall correctly.
