Great pictures, brigette. Look at the faces of the man holding up their registrations. There is the "Arab street". Happy, hopeful. Not those rabid dogs we usually are treated to.

Good morning all. This looks very encouraging, long lines, determination of the Iraqi's. 8 homicide bombers I've read.
I read a report that said not a lot of Sunni turnout? If so, they've cut off their own noses, choosing to not vote does not invalidate an election.
Is there any other major news from overnight that I've missed while getting my beauty zzzzzzz's?
