George Bush ought to hear the words that came out of obscure New Brunswick in 1987. They appeared in Dalton Camp’s “Gentlemen, Players and Politicians.”
“When men in power lose their touch, their facility for determining the political climate, the tragedy is always that they are the last to know it is gone. For a while, their power and reputation will sustain them, or the gift of an opponent’s folly may rescue them, but when decay in judgment sets in, it permeates the bones of a public man and he has not long to last. It is a terminal condition and no amount of luck may save him.” Guy F. Dubay Madawaska
