Are we really deluded enough to believe there will be real elections in Iraq when electoral commission workers are shot and beheaded in broad daylight in the streets of Baghdad?
The AP: "About 30 militants hurling hand grenades and firing machine guns attacked a car carrying five people employed by the [electoral] commission's Baghdad office and tried 'to drag them out.'" Three of the five men were killed in the attack.
Joe Biden on "Meet the Press" today predicted that real elections won't happen in Iraq for another year or so. He's being generous. Of couse, Allawi can always fly in Wally O'Dell and voters can just stay home.
