Raul Doesn't Speak, What Does it Mean?

More regular than the swallows at San Juan Capistrano are the Castros on July 26. So yesterday rolls around and we are left Castro-less at the mic. The Babalu crowd was as muted as Raul but they should have been concerned. By not bothering to speak By going sotto voce Raul seems to be underlining their often made statement that the "Revolution" is about something more than the Castro Bros. True, he could have sent a stronger signal by having someone other than octogenarian-to-be keynote, but the point is made nonetheless. Very subtle but the message is clear.
