Well, This Is Interesting

So, Jimmy Carter is basically saying that America is in a malaise. I see this as good news. What?!, you say, that's terrible news! Well, the last time he said something like that, he opened the door for Ronald Reagan to swoop in and lay the foundation for a generation of prosperity and renewed American spirit and eminence. Also-- almost as an afterthought, a period of relative world peace and stability. Unexpectedly!

Now, they say that history doesn't repeat itself, but it does rhyme. So I'm scouting the horizon for a Donald Fagen, or a Bonnie Seguin, or a Fawny Pagan, whatever, to come riding in from the east, at first light, on the fifth day. So to speak. You know he/she/xe is out there, somewhere. Spread the word.
