Fallout - The Euro press

Fallout - The Euro press reacts to the "Bush referendum". I liked this, from the far-left French La Liberation:

"The big loser of these elections, apart from the democrats, is none other than Saddam Hussein...An election setback for Bush would have been inevitably interpreted as a rejection by the American people of his threatening rhetoric against 'the axis of evil' whose pivot lies in Baghdad. Bush can thus henceforth claim a strong mandate of popular support for his politics of enforced disarmament of Iraq, and also in his dealing with the U.N."

This might be a good time to sell Hussein stock.
