I dont remember the exact statment gandalf said, about capable of doing 'a little bit of meaness'........but i suppose he didnt want the travellers to return to the shire if he could still fight in 'some small way.' i dont think he thought he would 'win,' but with Wormtounge turning on hom and jumping him, i think he had no thought of that at all. if wormtounge didnt stick him, who knows......he might have escaped into the East and set up some small tyranny and brought technologu and industry to men, as Weapons and Warefare put it. I think he knew he couldn't achive anymore in the West, he was just a bug up somebodys shirt.

? odd analogy......
