Best Answer

This is a political slogan for the running of Abraham Lincoln for president during the American Civil War. It basically means that when you are trying to cross a river on a horse, Lincoln, it is best not to switch for the risk of not being able to cross with the new horse. It would be better to stick with someone who has already crossed it partly and has the knowledge to do so.
