The more I read about Mikey, the more uncomfortable I get. He's 20. Does anyone remember what life was like at that age? Did you know ANYONE then who was serious enough to dive into politics at 20? I mean, outside the university pub where we all debated and bragged and felt immortal. I can't help but feel that the kid's a patsy. I'm not saying there aren't brilliant kids out there, but honestly. I just feel bad for the guy, he has obviously been used as a servant, driving (and maybe flying) his Uncle Rob to rehab, and carrying out God-knows what other duties for the Ford family. But to think that he has to deal with his family's unfathomable history (your Dad did what?) as well as being groomed and pushed into the spotlight? Lamb to the slaughter comes to mind. I don't feel one whit of pity for any of the elder Fords....but this one is bothering me.
