Yes, you are right on all fronts I grant you.  There is a time to stay and a time to go.  Sometimes it is hard to let go, which I guess is Helen Zille's problem - you cannot take it away from her - she was the DA.  I just don't think Mr Maimane has what it takes.  He doesn't inspire me enough, that's the problem - too much preacher, not enough chutzpah.  Much the same as in Zim with Tsvangirai.  We are missing really good, inspiring leaders of the ilk of Zille, to take it further.  Madonsela?
