A New Beginning

This and not Randy Moss' fake mooning is probably one, though not the only one, of the biggest stories to come out of the weekend. Everybody is saying all the right things as the world congratulates him, but it remains to be seen if he will actually be an effective President. Hamas and Arafat's militants still remain a problem, especially since they celebrated Abbas' election by calling for more glorious martyrs.
As a side note, I am so confident that Abbas will be an effective leader that I only put him as an alternate on the Dead Pool that I'm in.
