Former Vice President Walter Mondale has had a lot to say this week about comparisons between Jimmy Carter - once regarded as America's worst ever modern president - and the man who has made Carter look positively statesman-like, Barack Obama.
With all fairness to Mr Mondale, it's not like no one saw this coming, oh, two-and-something years ago. But come it did.
Like a lot of things though, this could be much more entertaining set to music. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the delightful Shirley Bassey:
(As an aside, it is unfortunate that the current Vice President, Uncle Fester-impersonator Joe Biden, could not give equal cover to Mondale in the personality department. Biden can only make Mondale look sane, but that was never Mondale's problem. Mondale is still a bore. Biden, however, could make Francis Bacon's housecat look sane.)

Someone who is capable of admitting to planning to raise taxes infront of an audience and cameras has either never left cloud cuckoo land, or is, in fact, cuckoo.
As for Biden, well, a stint in a Brueghel painting would certainly not go amiss.
