...grudge match. But at 59, he's the oldest likely contender, and his style seems out of tune with the iPod age. Hipness wouldn't be a problem for David Miliband (12 to 1 against), the 41-year-old Environment Minister. He's articulate, attractive - he even blogs. Alan Johnson, a genial ex?mail carrier and union leader now running education, is a bit more popular, and M.P.s praying for anyone-but-Brown are leaning toward him as their best hope.

If he succeeds, the errors are footnotes; if he fails, the best intentions are just dust. "I guess not many Presidents have been understood in their own time," Lyndon Johnson said, reflecting on all the good he'd tried to do for people, who despised him nonetheless. George W. Bush swats away the judgments that anniversaries invite. "There's no such thing as short-term history, as far as I'm concerned," he said last week. We can't know...
