...Above all, call it temporary - and there's still a chance that it won't happen at all. (In fact, if you're in a betting mood, you might want to throw some money at the won't-happen-at-all option...
...TIME FOR CHANGE, CHANGE YOU CAN TRUST - it's hard to miss the similarities between Cameron's slogans and Barack Obama's variations on the change theme: THE CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN, THE CHANGE WE NEED.

Now the speakers blared Everyday People as delegates felt license to dance (the Bushes had left; the storm had died away), and at any mention of energy policy, they erupted into chants of "Drill, baby, drill!!!" In place of the old white men, the podium featured a Latino farmer's son turned California state senator, impressive female CEOs and entrepreneurs, conservative black activists, apostate Democrats and, to deafening cheers, loyal Republican losers who raised the curtain on the surprise winner...
