NICE TIMING, KARL:
Iraq Set To Condemn Saddam, as U.S. Vote Nears (ELI LAKE, November 2, 2006, NY Sun)
http://www.nysun.com/article/42757

Two days before Americans vote in congressional midterm elections, a court in Baghdad could deliver a boost to President Bush's party — a guilty verdict and even a death sentence for Saddam Hussein.

On November 5, the Iraqi High Tribunal is scheduled to deliver a verdict against the deposed Iraqi dictator and his co-defendants for their role in the 1985 murder of 148 Shiite Arabs in the town of Dujail. The decision would mark the Iraqi court's first verdict against Saddam after more than two years of proceedings, three changes in chief judges, and the murder of four defense lawyers.

The decision could dominate the November 5 and 6 news cycles before the November 7 midterm elections in America, where the Iraq war has become a political loser for Republican candidates at the state and federal levels.
