Election Eve in DR Congo
Tomorrow the Congolese will be voting in parliamentary elections. There has been controversy from the start, from the advantage Joseph Kabila has because of the promise of stability if he remains in power to the claims of ballot fraud. Nevertheless, the elections offer a glimmer of hope for the Congolese people and I can only hope that they are successful, and that any violence is kept to a minimum (it is perhaps to much to hope for none at all).

Whatever the outcome in DR Congo, the country must remain a democratic republic.
a) because that's a reasonable form of government
b) because DR is the perfect courtesy title for Congo.
