Bibi Wins the Right to Lose to Sharon

I am somehow reminded of Bob Dole in 1996:
Former Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has won the leadership of the right-wing Likud party . . .

Likud is currently in third place in opinion polls for the country's forthcoming general election, with Mr Sharon's newly created Kadima party leading the way.
He wouldn't be the ideal PM by any means, but he might be marginally better than Sharon. We won't get to find out.
