It appears there are claims of fraud int he Afghani elections, and all 15 of those running against the U.S. backed candidate have pulled out. The Afghan version of Florida? Or whiney candidates? Hopefully, time will tell.

I think the Afghan people voted for the U.S./U.N. backed Hamid Karzai because they thought to themselves, "hey... we've been given the right to vote from the American Government so shouldn't they know what's best for us regarding democracy too?"

I think the other 15 candidates are butt hurt because of that but who knows...

 

To be honest, I actually agree with you, but I found it an interesting turn non the less. Figures something woudn't go smoothly. I'm just glad it was this and something more life threatening.

Hahaha, here’s what Headline News on Comcast just said...

Ink used to mark the voters fingers could be washed off and was fixed with a new supply of ink after two hours of confusion before voting resumed.

The 15 crybabies were trying to get by on a technicality... I thought it was something major.

 

They looked at me funny! I'm taking my basketball, and I'm going home! What a bunch of babies.
