How bad is she? Is she Obama-bad or just McCain-bad compared to Netanyahu? I thought I read she was a former Mossad agent- what happened?

Kadimah is the party Sharon founded mainly with Likud members he took with him joined by some prominent supporters from Labor. Tzipi is basically Likud except she’s tries to give the impression she’s all things to all people to get votes. If she actually swings left many of her main people like Mofaz would return to the Likud. No centre party has succeeded in Israel in becoming permanent because they always fly apart.

The old left Labor was decimated and the hard left Meretz, which once was a major force, has gone down to four seats, which means only two seats from the entire country and two seats from the Mapam Kibbutzes.

The main difference between Likud and Kadimah now is that Tzipi is hostile to the religious parties extortions and that strikes a big chord among many Israelis.
