Who is leading? And is the current President running again?For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)Comment

UR: do you agree with the idea that NK is attempting to influence the election via its threats (restarting its nuke program, etc), and if so, which side do you think will benifit in the elections?

Arrian,
It is entirely possible, but certainly not necessarily for the better. The candidate from the ruling party vows to continue the current "Sunshine" policy towards DPRK, while the opposition pushes for a hardline diplomacy.
Along the same lines, the US troops in South Korea is another point of contention. The ruling party will take a hardnosed stance while the other side is pro-US.
David,
I'll just have to kill you now. Nothing personal.

Do we have any reason do doubt that Roh will win?I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891Comment

Well, counting is still continuing, and it is extremely close, but it looks like Roh is the winner.
I don't know how he can expect to be successful while hitching his star to an erratic character (at best).I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter.

It would seem that anger vs. the US beat out worries about NK.
I say to hell with it, pull out the troops. They are pretty clearly no longer welcome.

Dan,
I don't think Kim Jung-il is erratic - he is very calculating. I see that the re-opening of the nuclear reactor as nothing more than bargaining chips. I am not sure how he views reunification, but he is warm to the idea of getting DPRK rich, evident in his willingness to setup "special economic regions."(\__/) 07/07/1937 - Never forget
