Lebed doesn't need to hurry.... He will soon appear as the only, natural, obvious choice for a post-Yeltsin leadership. Yuri Luzhkov? This fool is losing his last credentials by the day: Luzhkov, right now, looks like a mouthy burgomaster who's unable to secure a city of 10 million inhabitants (ie Moscow) --how could he fare better with the whole country???

Luzhkov is yet another casualty of the Peter's Principle: he reached his level of incompetency in the Mayorship of Moscow....

PS: don't give too much credit to the royalist crowd. General de Gaulle had also his royalist fanclub, his Catholic Fundamentalist groupies, and even some avant l'heure Pinochetist roadies.... Yet, in the end, de Gaulle gave France a new set of Republican Institutions (the Vth Republic)
