    It's just like that episode of Gray's Anatomy - or maybe 24

    Don't forget that on television, the ER patient is always revived by the persistent doctor after angrily brushing aside his defeatist colleagues. And since the participants in the Victory Caucus seem to conceptualize war at the level of a TV drama, maybe they're hoping that blurting out "Clear!" and applying the paddles one more time will bring the corpse to life.
