It takes a Thief....

[Philippus Flavius Homovallumus]

We hear that a lot lately over here. Even from The Man himself. Sorta like: "Our team won more seats, so sit down, shut up, and watch." which infuriates the oppostition (who also won their seats).

1) a well-intentioned amateur, who learns quickly
2) a run-of-the-mill average politician with good speech-delivery
3) a commie 'plant' bent on wrecking the country

There's always option four:

A Great but tragically principled statesman.
