| #11 Exit polls are always accurate. Just ask John Kerry. All snarking aside, either of these would do well for Israel I think. At least, as much as I can determine without being in Israel. |

| #10 with 76% counted projections were Kadima 29 mandates, Likud 28 Israel Beiteinu 16 Labor 12 Shas 11 Meretz 4, United Torah Judaism 4, National Union 4, Hadash 4, Bayit Hayihudi 3, United Arab List 3, and Balad 2 seats. Israel Beiteinu would prefer Likud to Kadima Shas will not be in a coalition with IsBeit Labor won't be in a coalition with Likud, etc. It is a bit like figuring out seating at a Hatfield-McCoy wedding. |

| #9 Michael Medved sez that Israeli exit polls-- by law-- do not include active duty military. He has family in Israel, so maybe he knows what he's talking about. |

| #6 Livni might win the vote but she may not be able to put together a majority. Netanyahu has an easier path to do that even if he comes in second. Watch and wait. |

| #5 But... for Israel's sense of self preservation: triple crap. |
