    I always thought it was weird that lefties got behind this guy when I remember him years back on the Colbert show bragging about the public-private partnerships he had pulled off. Like it was good he had helped his town and all, but it wasn't in anyway Left.

      In my case; It's just really hard to track down the political histories of every "progressive" that pops up. I need to remind myself; The only curse that Pandora managed to capture before it could escape the box was Hope.

        ive never understood that

        are we free from hope? Like, able to stop feeling it? Or do we only have hope because it's still in the box?

          I interpret it as hope being a passive acceptance of the other curses. if you're hoping you've already given up. It's kind of a 'take heart, fortify, rally, you don't have to fall back on hope, these evils can be conquered" thing.
