Musharraf's downfall is a case in point. Nobody would have even thought he would be leaving so soon, before he (in his arrogance) tried to remove the Chief Justice thinking it would be a piece of cake. What ensued after is history. Now Zardari is more politically astute then Musharraf, so he has made it thus far. But how long can this go? The will of the people (and the awareness created by the media especially about corruption) will manifest itself if not through the next elections than God forbid through a bloody revolution.
