The Sound of the Crowd

From The New York Times (via MotherJones)

“It’s like the twin strands of a double helix of a DNA molecule. One strand is the technical and operational part. We are basically on course for that one, in perhaps 70 or 80 percent of Iraq. But the other strand, without which you can’t have DNA, is the overall environment. There we have a problem.”

–An official involved in planning for the Iraqi elections, scheduled for Jan. 30.
