From a purely political point of view, the Compromise of 1850 was a terrible idea for the South. They gave up their having an equal number of seats in the Senate to the North, and all they got in return was a federal law, the Fugitive Slave Act, that everyone galvanized opposition to them in the North. So they both angered the North and gave them the tools needed to act on that anger. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! ...
