Beautiful creatures, aren’t they? Majestic, fearsome, but still gentle. They move slower than most animals, but they travel just as far. But that isn’t what I love most about them. They are a matriarchal society, and when the males reach their mating age, the females kick them the hell out of the herd.

Susan Berg: ”It was a triumphant day for the former president. No, i don’t mean the three american lives he negotiated for in Turkey. Bud’s most artful act of diplomacy took place at home with his ex-wife. Somehow he managed to negotiate his way back into her good graces.

But the day belongs to Secretary of State Elaine Barrish. With the White House intransigent,the Secretary placed one of the larger political bets we have ever witnessed on the table. She bet it all on a man who’s spent a lifetime violating her trust and publicly humiliating her.

I’ve written a lot about Elaine Barrish in this paper over the years. I’ve criticized her for just about everything: from her policies to her marriage, to her motives, to her hair. I was right about the hair, by the way.

I’ve written a lot of things about Elaine Barrish, except “Thank you”.

I’ve never written that. Until today.

“REVEAL ELAINE BARRISH HAMMOND (50’s). Our first good look at her—even in the pantsuit she’s breathtaking. Brilliant and indefatigable—Elaine is a force and a beauty. Like her husband, she has a regal countenance. If America had a queen, it would be Elaine.”

— POLITICAL ANIMALS, script by Greg Berlanti

Most of life is hell. It’s filled with failure and loss. People disappoint you, dreams don’t work out, hearts get broken. Innocent journalists die. And the best moments of life, when everything comes together are few and fleeting. But you’ll never get to the next great moment if you don’t keep going. So that’s what I do; I keep going.
