If you take a closer look at the wording the article is saying Lafontaines
'speechlessness' will be over then, nothing about entering party politics
again.
It looks like a PR piece from his publisher, because in the same article
they mention his new book to be published in August. So there will be no red
hero from Euroland to save you.
