...which case, Washington will, doubtless, decide that it has to find another horse to back. If it follows the usual formula, the Bush Administration will probably decide that Bilawal and Zardari are its new best friends. That may do little for Bhutto's heirs - being seen as a friend of the U.S. is not a great way of ensuring a long and quiet life in Pakistan - and may do little for the U.S. as well.
