Rebecca West on Huey Long (from the T. Harry Williams bio):
"Another English visitor, Rebecca West, was not so favorably impressed. She saw the cold intelligence that Huey concealed behind his buffonery--he was 'the most formidable kind of brer fox'--but she also saw something dangerous lurking within him, a realization of destiny barely concealed coupled with a vitality that was almost animal."
Does that sound familiar, folks?
More here from Schlesinger's THE POLITICS OF UPHEAVAL. (West knew Huey's danger. H.G. Wells didn't! Listen to women!)
