That means nothing, Mubarak stepping down at next election is not what the protestors want at all.

This is more posturing and Obama is really making a mess of this.

Who in their right mind gives a rat’s a$$ what the “protestors” want?

Waiting until elections is not gonna fly for Mubarak, you have to remove the entire tumour in one go in order to kill the cancer, leaving bits behind will mean it stays the same, the protestors know this.

This piecemeal dumbness cooked up by Obama and Mubarak is gonna piss them off more and it looks like to the Middle East that Obama is doing all he can to keep the regime in place.

As usual, he's trying to play both sides. This is not going to end well.
