I knew they would have to find a away to fix the vote to ensure ratification. Now we now how:
Changing the requirement for a province to reject the constitution from 2/3 of the vote, to 2/3 of registered voters.
The GOP are pros at this stuff - and don't bother trying to suggest it is an Iraqi issue.
They could have just let it go, get turned over on ratification, and then started over to work at a better constitution.

What does this do for the legitimacy of the Iraq government? Not good.
What does this do for the likelyhood of civil war (if they are not already in one)? Not good.
