Whatevre be the negative aspects of musharaff, he is the best bet for not only pakistan but also india.He is the one who can take decisions & can prevent fundamentalists taking over.If uniform goes ,it would be difficult for him & ie the reason he wants to be in uniform.Even if democracy comes to pakistan, it would be short lived. BESIDES NO DEMOCRATIC PM can take a stand to allow some space for kashmir problem to settle.The so called elected people will be more anti india than musharaff just for their survival.Military & isi in particular will dictate terms to any PM elected.Democracy in pakistan can only be on paper.Gen. has done much better than anybody else so far what ever be his past mistakes as army chief. His mistake of sacking the chief jutice was his major mistake but for which he would have been in a stronger position. STII I VOTE FOR HIM AS HE IS THE BEST BET BOTH FOR INDIA & PAKISTAN

Your assessment is fairly right. Musharaff has outgrown his limitations in outlook and taken Pakistan forward in many fronts. Musharaff, bereft of his auatonomy and authority as chief of Army staff, will be a vegetable or show-piece being seen kicked around by extremely cunning lady Bhutto. Musharaff is good for Pakistan and all countries living in the modern world order.
