"There are even Sunnis and christians on the list."

Yes, yes, I remember hearing that before.

Well, it won't be easy, and we've got to keep an eye on things, don't want no more Mullah/facists, if you know what I mean and I'm sure you do. But we will see. There were some women elected, no? That'd be big progress.

We're all hoping for the best. It will be really interesting to follow the upcoming negotiations and deal making.

I guess I am sceptical, but still cautiously optimistic. I guess it depends where you decide to set the bar.

BTW, I think that women comprise 1/3 of Sistani's list. I guess that in itself is slightly uplifting. I am normally against quotas, but in this case I make an exception :-)
