To clarify: the title is excerpted from Act 1 of Shakespeare's Love's Labour's Lost. The full quote goes: "Light, seeking light, doth light of light beguile; So ere you find where light in darkness lies, Your light grows dark by losing of your eyes." It's a warning against spending too much of your life in scholarly pursuits.

They're Baaaaaaack!
You know what they say about age and guile -- it beats youth and enthusiasm every time.
I am starting to feel sorry for young Mr. Obama. He actually thought he would win. And once the brash young Senator from Chicago is disposed of there's poor old John McCain.
It's not gonna be pretty.
And that is probably for the good.
Obama seems to be a nice young man, but his rhetoric has never made much sense and his campaign has attracted all sorts of really scary types. He would be a disaster as president.
Bill and Hill may be evil and corrupt and ruthless and all that, but they aren't going to be stupid.
Evil genius is always preferable to well intentioned naivete -- it does less damage.
