Poland's Lech Walesa... Longs for the Limelight

Poland's Lech Walesa still considers running for high office... despite opinion polls that show support only in the single digits.

Apparently, Walesa likes to keep in the news...even if it means recent disputes with historians,
the current Polish president and his own ally, Prime Minister Donald Tusk.

For Walesa, like once potent silverbacks everywhere (eg. Bill Clinton),...the twin lures of power and attention are addictive.
