Many news orgs covered the election today that is set for tomorrow.

All kinds of problems remain- Warlords, The Taliban, Opium, and it remains to be seen if the election will be seen as fair and just.

Some things are obvious-

It's better than before and we're all grateful.
Bush is going to try and get as much traction as possible as this fine example of liberty takes wings
Bush will try to diffuse as much as possible the fact that he has turned Iraq into something even worse than what Afghanistan was before.

With things seemingly spinning out of control in the re-election campaign and Iraq, I can only hope that Afghanistan will survive this test. It's the one thing everyone agreed on going in...
