What a difference a day makes

Schadenfreude Moments are just abounding everywhere today. Kerry conceded the US election to George Bush. Bush managed to capture the largest popular vote in US history.

And now Arafat’s health has deteriorated further.

The health of Palestinian Authority Chairman Yasser Arafat seriously deteriorated Wednesday night. He was placed in an intensive-care unit at the French military hospital where he is being treated. Arafat was flown to France for treatment last Friday after his health worsened.

The sudden deterioration came a few hours after Leila Shahid, the Palestinians' permanent envoy to Paris, reiterated that doctors carrying out tests on Arafat in the suburb of Clamart, southwest of Paris, had ruled out leukemia or any other form of cancer and said his health was improving.
