Netanyahu told his supporters in a speech early Wednesday that he was proud of the gains by his hardline party. Exit polls show Likud coming in second, but in a better position to lead a coalition government because of a strong showing by other nationalist parties.

I read earlier that he lost the election.
His party did very well but he lost.

I hope it’s true, but the way elections go world wide now wouldn’t surprise me one bit if ACORN somehow managed to get Ahmud Imanutjob elected PM of Israel.

I guess we’ll just have to wait until they count the votes.
Go Bibi!

That was exit polling, I believe. It’ll be a thrill if liberal exit poll manipulation falls on its face again. More thrilling, of course, will be Obama having to face someone who actually has Israel’s best interests in mind.

According to the article he says with God’s will he’ll be leading and changing policy, so in his mind anyway, yes.
I sure hope so, the world will need a strong leader in the next 4 years.

He spoke with Avigdor Lieberman, so yes odds are good he will be named Prime Minister soon.

About an hour ago I was listening to Michael Medved interviewing his brother who lives in Jerusalem. He said Bibi will be the winner.

Awesome. Finally some good news.
To: Rastus
If Bibi wins he will become the leader of the Western world in the fight against Islamofascism.
And Obama will evolve to become Bibi's greatest enemy.
I support Bibi.

I’m so confused, I thought Livni won, I want Netanyahu to win, I hope that he won. We need him, under Livni she will be Obama’s puppet
