Há bens que vêm por mal

Pergunta Paulo Gorjão no Bloguítica se:
"Ferro Rodrigues estará disponível e/ou interessado em ser o candidato do PS nas próximas eleições presidenciais?"
Só o imaginar de tal eventualidade deixa-me coberto de suores frios.
"In North America the black bear was seen by [Samuel] Hearne swimming for hours with widely open mouth, thus catching, like a whale, insects in the water. Even in so extreme a case as this, if the supply of insects were constant, and if better adapted competitors did not already exist in the country, I can see no difficulty in a race of bears being rendered, by natural selection, more and more aquatic in their structure and habits, with larger and larger mouths, till a creature was produced as monstrous as a whale."
