Another small step for mankind

Daniel Drezner links to an encouraging report out of Brazil. Another leftist icon, Lula da Silva, comes to terms with the real world and his supporters aren't very happy about it. The context is the World Social Forum, sort of an anti-Davos meeting, in Porto Alegre, Brazil. For more on Lula and the WSF read Samuel Lowenberg's account in Slate.

UPDATE:

Yet another liberal icon proves a bit disappointing to "progressives." Barak Obama voted to confirm Condi and the left is unhappy. Read about it here.
