The Blair Legacy

By The Daily Dish

May 10 2007, 4:30 AM ET

A great piece by William Hague, former Tory leader, on the man who beat him badly in one election. Money quote:

We, the British people, will not look back on Tony Blair and love him: he has been in power too long for that. We, even his opponents, will not hate him: his attributes have always repelled that. But we will, on all sides, look back and ask "What did he really believe in doing? And when was he going to get round to it?"
