| #3 Refresh me here. Musharaf took over in a coup. Has he been elected once since then? If not - how can it be a re-election? |

| #2 Musharaf is so close to the PML-Q that Pakis refer to it as: "the king's party." The party shares power with the MMA in Balochistan. Both the PPP and MQM are mortal enemies of the MMA, which is Taliban lite, at best. The PPP probably wouldn't unite with Mushy, unless indictments are lifted against its leaders in exile. The MQM might stay aboard if they get a free hand against Jamaat-i-Islami, in Sindh. Political murder is inherent to the MQM, but they tend to kill America's enemies, and supporters in the US profess dual loyalty, although many would like Sind independence from their Punjabi masters. |

| #1 This is encouraging news. That country is dangerous enough with a stable government - remove Musharraf from the equation and it could really become a major flashpoint. |
