Since these elections will elect regional representatives, I think the different groups will be electing their leaders, along with a few national positions maybe only the Shiia will listen to, since they'll likely BE Shiia. The Shiia and the Kurds have oil they want to develop and sell.

The Sunni will be screwed, left out with none of the oil (which is codified in the constitution - regions control their OWN oil revenues) and none of the power. This after RUNNING the country under Saddam. The sh*t on the Sunni end of the stick will be even more clearly defined now.

If anyone thinks this election will cause peace to break out, they live in the same positivist fantasyland as the chimp.
