SHITSTORM

I have a long history of banter with UK friends about Gordon Brown, the extremely accident prone PM who is running for re-election.

Today he gaffed big in a typical Gordon Brown way and then, as my friend said, he wouldn't let go of the shovel. He kept digging a deeper hole.

Sometimes with something like this shutting up is the best thing. Apologize. Get it over. Move on.

Not Gordo.

This may sink him. He has, once again, allowed the media and his own obsessive personality get the better of him.

No grace under pressure. Always a foot in the poop or the mouth or back and forth in both.

This kind of guy rises to the top which is just about two feet too high for him.

I am watching a film about the deal that was made between Blair and Brown for leadership of the Labour Party. It will be interesting.

Here is a blow by blow.

How Gordon Brown 'bigot' jibe row unfolded

If you have a taste for slow motion train wrecks and like your schadenfreude served warm and piping, you will enjoy this. There are tape clips to drive it all home.
