remember when?


Hope, a second time round, still lingers on a rusty mailbox in the next road.  I feel sad not just at this in and of itself, but sad about the fact that Obama may well have scuttled things by being too principled, too desirous of being Presidential and non-partisan (as well as firmly partisan in other things, like health care) to call out the Russians loudly and publicly before the last election.  When being principled lands us with the least principled "leader" imaginable, what value, though, does one place on it?  Going and seeing Beatriz at Dinner has put me in an even gloomier mood.
