Gergen: "The most damaging thing to Bush will be Iraq elections.

[kerry-is-my-prez]

If the religious groups win the elections & it looks like they will. This will be more harmful than anything else that has happened recently.

1. Interesting

I don't know if the average 'Murikan will notice.

[jbnow]

7. They really will notice.

The vast majority will be upset we spent all the lives and dollars so they could have a strict Islamic government. That's not letting "freedom ring" and all the hype we have gotten.
It will be big on the news. They'll notice.

[kerry-is-my-prez]

9. OR understand it - that's what I thought...

[OldLeftieLawyer]

2. HEY!

Fuckface wanted elections - he got elections.

heh heh heh

I think Gergen's half right, because, out of all the crap this bastard has pulled on us and our country, this domestic spying thing is going to rise up and bite him soundly on the other side of his ass.

3. Read to today that election results will be held off until

January. I hope we're not going to Diebold them. :(

[SoFlaJet]

5. yea sis

like any of us HERE have any doubt they won't pull some shenanigans to get the desired results.remember;their creed is they want to spread THEIR form of democracy(sic) to the region,you know stealing elections,smearing political opponents and running roughshod over the constitution.

[Amonester]

17. Yes. And don't forget the fact that they want to keep stealing all

of Iraq's oil until the day there'll be none left.

That's their only 'real' important plan.
We know they'd prefer to keep it secret...

Won't Work.

[Atman]

12. Of course we are. BushCo created the elections, they'll create the results

It's what they do.

[Faygo Kid]

4. This is correct. There was never any doubt: Civil war, Islamic republic

The latter fully allied with Iran. The Kurds in the north, and likely clashes with the Turks. The Sunnis in enclaves, festering hatred. The neocon dream was always insane. Even Diebold couldn't save the Bushies this time.

6. Why do you think

it's taking so long to correct the votes

ummm, errr... I mean count the votes

[flordehinojos]

8. is gergen trying to reframe the focus away from the bush crime here toone

half way around the world?

[kerry-is-my-prez]

10. Gergen has been no fan of BushCo. He most often is on their case.

n/t

[babylonsister]

14. My observation has been a bit different about Gergen.

I've often thought he's been an apologist for this admin.

[flordehinojos]

15. yes, it seems that is what i have thought as well.

[janx]

11. It didn't appear that way to me.

He just mentioned the election results in addition to the rest.

[0007]

13. Maybe he got Ted Stevens message and sees the hand writing

on the wall.

[flordehinojos]

16. oh, can you illuminate my lack of knowledge as to what the stevens

message is? i guess i am totally ignorant as to who ted stevens is (or is he the senator from alaska?)but as you see, i am also ignorant as to what the message is.

[npincus]

18. I wonder how the Chimp and MSM will spin it

[ProSense]

19. The most damaging thing to American democracy is Bush. n/t
