Iraqi elections are just a week away, but their ultimate result is anyone's guess. Those of us who are watching the political situation in the troubled land of two rivers can only guess who will rise to the top and become the next Prime Minister of Iraq. It is a decent bet to say that the current leader, Dr. Ibrahim al-Ja'fari of the Islamic Da'wa Party, will likely not be in power following the formation of a new government. His replacement is anyone's guess."
The Iraqi Vote

I call him the Iraqi Madonna, as to me he seems to reinvent himself at the drop of a dime. But what would I know. I was actually surprised to see him indorsed here. Maybe I will give the guy a bit of latitude. If there is one thing that Iraq does not lack is characters, but that's one of those things that gives me great hope that Iraq will complete it's journey to full democracy. Only someone totally lacking any sense of morality could possibly keep these people down. saddam was someone like that but I think that after the Iraqis have gotten this little breath of free air, no one, not even ten saddams will ever be able to hold them down again.
