On a tangential note, I was impressed by the gnomic brilliance of Hillary Clinton's reaction to the choice of Mr Kerry, as reported by Mr Obama in his appearance at the White House (Mrs Clinton being unwell, and unable to attend). "She could not be more excited about the announcement that I'm making," the president reported, the newly-minted nominee at his side. It reminded me of the Moses Hadas line: "Thank you for sending me a copy of your book. I'll waste no time reading it." Was she very excited? We will never know. But she could not be more excited.
