QUIET HERO OF THE ELECTION
Ayers talks.
He had such amazing discipline about saying nothing during the campaign, Obama should have been thanking him for the election last night (at least privately). It really was a virtuoso performance of silence. Enormous self-control under enormous strain.
Today, he loses that discipline, sadly, with David Remnick at the helm of this 'defeat', this capitulation to "say something".
(He doesn't understand that there is nothing he can say, at this point. Nothing personal, that is. By that, I mean, he cannot be "exonerated" in the hearts of those who "convicted" him. The O'Reilly-Hannity inspired threats on his life are newsworthy, nonetheless.)
