A dark horse indeed who, like the rest in this race, has been at the edge of the trough for the last decade & even if they weren't feeding from it they cannot but have smelt the muck in it. Yet none could find the courage to stand back & tell us how much it stank. In this ANC of 2017 any one of the candidates, will come to the table severely compromised with one hand tied - for that is the only way possible to hold the organisation together.  For a while it will seem like a breath of fresh air and some polishing will take place that will momentarily distract us with a sense of relief. But we are deluding ourselves if we expect that the absolutely necessary & decisive clean-out of what is now an institutionalised 'modus operandi' will ever take place under the ANC. To do that would tear the party apart and none of them will stand up and be the one to do that. Thus, in a few years we'll be back at the same stinking trough with a formidable likelihood of a DD as a 'president-in-waiting'.
