I can't help but to compare the situation Iran has now and the Philippines had in 2004. You have an incumbent running for the position and a "reformer" vowing to change things in the country. Well, I'm only aware about things in Iran is that they've blocked facebook, cellular phone network down, and a lot of things that is connected to "cheating".
Oh well, whatever Iranian decides, I just hope it would be the greater good of the world.
If you ask me, I think Mahmoud (cause I can't spell his last name CORRECTLY) is a very polarizing figure. Though applauded on his conservative tone, women's rights is still an issue. I am for the women and I think their importance in the society should be taken account to. Even though it is hundred years tradition, I firmly believe that ONE VOTE can change the course.
After this, if Gordon Brown calls for Parliament Dissolution (which is unlikely in the next couple of months), I shall turn in to the first international election I tuned in to, and was and am fascinated of. I'm thinking the Tories (or Conservatives) can regain control of the government after 12 years of the Blairian Decade. I really like Tony Blair, why does this good man have to be dragged by a President who was thrown by a shoe! haha.
Then, on October, I'll go back to the Philippine Election setting.
If you ask me, I'm pro-Cha-Cha, pro-NOW (as in now na!), but anti-Con-Ass.
