Michael's phrasing was perhaps not the best, but still Flood was an important figure and even if he was short term unsuccessful he raised awareness and inspired others along the path. That it may have been inevitable doesn't really diminish him, so too was civil rights and many other historical trends but we still rightly revere certain leaders.
