Olmert's Still In & Tsippi Had Help

According to law, Olmert is in office until a new government is formed. So if you had thought that the Kadima Primaries would bring a new Prime Minister, don't start holding your breath so soon.

Strange things about those primaries. All of the polls, actually even including the one that asks voters as they leave the polling stations, all said that Tsippi was far ahead of Mofaz. Then, they counted the votes. And the results were different. It was almost a tie. Actually, some Mofaz supporters say that the 400+ difference could go the other way, if the votes were to be recounted.

Even more peculiar, one of the pollsters is blaming the media for hyping Tsippi and demoralizing the Mofaz supporters. I think it's the ridiculous reliance of polls, by the media, which is at fault.

But the bottom line is that we're still stuck with Olmert!

Here's a quote from Samsonblinded blog and they are 100% correct.
"How can Jews be called smart when the entire country, ultra-right to ultra-left, hunted down Olmert in order to replace him with Livni? Where will be find another realistically electable politician with Olmert credentials, the man who attacked Hezbollah on the first provocation (unlike Barak and the others), presided over the economy more robust than Netanyahu’s, declined populist calls to invade Gaza so that IDF would stuck in urban fights, bombed Syrian nuclear reactor despite opposition of his defense minister, and unlike every other prime minister in the last twenty years gave nothing whatsoever to Palestinians?"

Think about it, really. Now you have got a disaster on your hands with Livni. Remember the times when Golda was in office? I don't support anything this man has done, as his morals are not at times ok, but he has been hunted for no reason, now, you will get a wicked wicked leader. We never will learn and since all comes from haShem, this too we deserve. The geula will be brought in the harshest terms, why, because we won't listen.

Sorry to disagree with the 100% grade. I'm not happy with Tsippi, but Olmert's more dangerous.
