{Reagan's} presidency always reminded me of a remark made by a woman to
Heywood Broun following Secretariat's victory in the Triple Crown. After the
trauma of Vietnam and Watergate, she said, Secretariat had "restored her faith
in humanity." I like to think Reagan was the Secretariat of the eighties.
