Arafat's Wife Lashes Out at Top Aides

foxnews.com

Her insistence that Arafat was doing fine came a day after French Foreign Minister Michel Barnier called his condition "very complex, very serious and stable right now."

Mrs. Arafat, 41, lives in Paris and has not been to the West Bank or had not seen her husband since the latest round of Palestinian violence began in 2000. She is widely believed to have control of vast funds collected by the PLO.

Qureia has already assumed some emergency financial and administrative powers that Arafat normally would wield. Abbas, considered a more likely successor, has chaired a series of meetings of the PLO executive committee in Arafat's absence in an effort to project unity. Neither politician has much grassroots support among Palestinians or important militant groups.

Steve, looks like I was wrong about Mayor Gavin Newsom. He is now being blamed for Bush's victory:

Liberal logic: Bush won because of the gay marriage issue. Newsom helped launch the issue into the spotlight, thereby mobilizing the "evangelical right" to react.
