...Giuliani isn't positioned to compete for the job of taking Huckabee on - at least not in New Hampshire. Nor is the former New York mayor positioned to do well in the next major contest, in South Carolina. Giuliani's campaign strategy to wait, and wait...and wait until later this month and the G.O.P. primary in Florida, where thousands of transplanted New Yorkers will, at least in theory, rescue him from obscurity.

...Thaksin's government; and his longtime foes, the urban, Bangkok-centered middle class. Some who led the anti-Thaksin demonstrations in 2006 have threatened to do so again if he returns. Rosana Tositrakul, Secretary General of the Thai Holistic Health Foundation and a former protest leader, says she will wait and see what a PPP government does.
