Khatami must think he has a chance at a re-run or something.
The Grand Ayatollah Khameni may be dying of cancer but only has to snap his finger and Khatami will be rubbed out.

Mr Ahmadinejad is expected to run for a second term next year.

Khatami might do the same, or Rafsanjani. Those three have been the only presidents of Iran since the early 90s. I'm thinking Khatami-Ahmadinejad is the Iranian version of the Bush-Clinton dynasty.

It will be interesting to see if Nutjob wins, seeing as he only won by 500,000 votes this time with 11 million boycotting voters. His support has tanked among the Iranian electorate, but that's why they have a grand Ayatollah to pick the leaders....
