Well she had everybody came, the whole congress came every week. She served hot coffee, she served wine, and then she served what really was groggy. It was whiskey and heated whiskey. And everybody just loved it. [laughter] madison used the green room to lower the ones that he needed to talk to. Two men for, one from each party. It was very, very useful. People never forgot her for that. She was a bit of a street angel and home devil. She cleverly did that.
