Good Good Good: Hizbullah Defeated in Lebanese Elections

The anti-Syrian March 14 coalition has secured 70 out of 128 seats in the Lebanese assembly, soundly defeating the Hizbullah-Communist-Socialist March 8 alliance. More importantly, the opposition has accepted the result (via Legal Insurrection):
"We have lost the election," said a senior politician close to the March 8 alliance. "We accept the result as the will of the people."
That's a phrase I'll never tire of hearing. Faster, please.

Unfortunately the winners are as bad for the country as the losers.
