@StephDouglas7 Don't worry, Douglas, I guarantee the results won't be the same. #Lincoln1860

To all my supporters, we have unfortunately lost the 1858 Illinois Senate election, even though we won the popular vote. However, I promise to be back and even stronger in 2 years for the upcoming presidential election. #StayStrong #LincolnForPrez

@StephDouglas7 The only one unqualified to be Senator is you. I am not the abolitionist you paint me to be, rather one with good morals that is trying his best to preserve our Union.

[Abraham Lincoln @RealHonestAbe3]

Douglas' Freeport Doctrine is a do-nothing sovereignty that is as thin as the homeopathic soup that was made by boiling the shadow of a pigeon that had starved to death.

[Abraham Lincoln @RealHonestAbe3]

The expansion of slavery is a danger to the Union as it has caused many controversies such as in Missouri in 1820 and during the events of Bleeding Kansas. The crisis will be reached and passed when slavery is put in the course of ultimate extinction! #EndSlavery #Crisis

@StephDouglas7 please reconcile popular sovereignty with the Dred Scott Decision

[Abraham Lincoln @RealHonestAbe3]

I believe this government cannot endure permanently half slave and half free. The Dred Scott Decision deprives African Americans of the rights and privileges of citizenship and could allow slavery to spread into free states. #Equality #StopTheSpread

[Abraham Lincoln @RealHonestAbe3]

Stephen Douglas is part of a conspiracy to nationalize slavery. The ending of the Missouri Compromise ban on slavery in the Kansas and Nebraska Territories and the Dred Scott Decision are steps in this direction. #LincolnForSenate
