...great trauma. Other than party loyalists, few believe he can. "The jury is out on redemption," says political analyst Nasim Zehra. "But I don't think Zardari can stand up and rally the people behind him." Zardari has to balance U.S. demands for firm military action against the distrust of a public alienated by American adventures in the region.
