They still haven't got a new Prime Minster...


The Ukraine election was almost 100 days ago and today, Yulia Tymoshenko was nominated for the position of PM and her nomination required a majority vote in the 450 seat legislature. Guess what? She came up a vote short with 225. Needless to say there are all kinds of conspiracy theories floating around. I hope that her nomination is approved quickly so that Ukraine's new government can get started.

The revote is expected this Friday, but, with so much at stake for Yanukovych, voting card snatching can happen again.

All I can say is sheesh. I saw the speaker elected the other night... and the next day or so Yulia was rejected.
