I hate to sound paranoid, although it's more or less unavoidable these days, but re Fatass not caring about public opinion at the beginning of the piece... is it because he knows he's a lame duck and just doesn't care about his party's fortunes after he's gone, or is it because he intends to seize power?

I've wondered if farm bailouts wouldn't be a good bellwether on this question. If he doesn't bail out farmers--again--is it a sign that he no longer thinks he needs their support?
