Mega, nothings wrong per se if they vote Shiite. The problem is, there isn't any infrastructure laid down. In Western democracies, the winners don't get to make just any law they want to make. There are restrictions that protect the minorities. That's not true in Iraq. I think SuperTool was right in saying "the result is either going to be a Shiite president, a civil war, or both."

They might hocus pocus around for a while with some kind of shared power. But it's going to get uglier.

Where are all those flower throwing, welcoming Iraqis? Remember those discussions?

You mean by giving the election another time things will get better?
