(1.) Crack-down. Either full-on military or some type of secret police type of thing. I think this is the direction Mubarak is heading in. (2.) Hold an election. If Mubarak does this fair he probably loses, if he rigs it it makes things worse so probably no win there for him. To Vivec's point though, he could announce an election, wait for things to calm down, and then move to option #1. (3.) Resign. Preserves his ability to come back and/or undermine. I can't even remember what China did, but I think they did a #1 in combination with a new communist party election and it seems to have worked out great for them; commies still in power. However they handled it might be a blueprint for Mubarak. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:333895 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
