CAIRO — Egypt's President Hosni Mubarak is to step down tonight, two sources have told NBC News, losing his 30-year grip on power after 17 days of dramatic mass uprisings across the nation.
NBC's Richard Engel reported that a high-ranking source inside the president's office said the newly appointed vice president, Omar Suleiman, would take over. This was confirmed by a second source.
Egypt's military announced on national television it had stepped in to secure the country and promised protesters calling for Mubarak's ouster that all their demands would soon be met.

ONLY MSNBC can come up with ‘the world waits for Obama speech’
Hello, Obama is mostly irrelevant.

How long before the rioting dummies look back on the Mubark regime as the good old days?
I say less than one year.

You want Biden in charge? As I've said before, Biden is random incompetence. Obama is directed incompetence. The latter is more harmful.

Give Hosni a break now, it takes awile to stash away that last 15 or 20 Billion $s. When he get’s done THEN he will speak.

If the Muslim Brotherhood takes power, US aid will cease... After Obama is thrown out of the White House.

Biden would have the exact same governmental support system. NOTHING would change.

"random" or "directed" ALL Democrats are incompetent and dedicated to taking the country as far left as possible. Clinton tried to do everything Obama has actually accomplished, from healthcare to gays in the military. The only difference is this time the Leftists pulling the strings didn't mind sacrificing Democrat moderates in the Congress if it meant they could finally take care of the "Check List".
The people directing the party doesn't change, that's why the Obama administration is full of Clintonistas. A Biden administration would be Obamaland.

Sarah Palin was right.
The 3 AM phone call came in, and it went straight to voicemail.
