IN a year of many disappointments it’s not often that you get two exciting developments happening in the same month.

Win or lose, they signal a new kind of politics in our poor beleaguered country, one that goes beyond the usual empty chatter about race and religion. It’s so nice to see a leader that, unlike some that come to mind, has not inhaled the toxins that usually pervade our political parties, despite having spent years in the peninsula.
