BTW, yes I am referring to it as a democracy.
From the CIA factbook:
Elections: election last held 9-11 March 2002 (next to be held NA March 2008);
election results: Robert Gabriel MUGABE reelected president; percent of vote - Robert Gabriel MUGABE 56.2%, Morgan TSVANGIRAI 41.9%
The 2002 election was so rife with fraud so as to make any claim of 'democracy' meaningless.
