Quote for the Day

Following the hunt for Gordon Brown from afar is a bit like watching one of those National Geographic programs in which some natural killer -- a tiger, maybe, or a shark, a hawk, a particularly icky spider -- tracks down and destroys its prey before devouring it for the camera.

Key to the awfull thrill is the utter lack of awareness of the prey that it has only moments left to live.
