The post of EU president doesn't even exist until the Lisbon Treaty has been ratified by Ireland, so all the talk is a bit premature, and I'd still be amazed if Blair gets the job if it's ever vacant.

All this talk about personalities does mean that other important issues are pushed off the agenda. For example, the EU plans lots of new legislation in the Justice and Home affairs field. We know little of what is planned and this is one of the things the media should focus on.
