Raza Gillani elected as PM, Gets 264 votes

Re: Raza Gillani nominated as PM

I agree. But also remember that Imran (and the lawyers) call for a boycott of the elections was misplaced as well. In the end the all the major political parties took part in the elections, because power is all they care about, and principles are sidelined. Zardari's humiliation of Faheem and last minute pact with the MQM further demonstrates that as well.
