You are giving Mush too much credit here. He removed his uniform under pressure from the US. Then was sucked into believing by the Americans that he could extend his kursi with the help of illegal NRO. That was nothing but greed. Do you seriously think that BB (if elected PM) w’d have tolerated him as President for 5 years!!
Although I accept that he ruled ok from 1999-2002, his downfall pretty much started in 2003 when he aligned himself with one of the most corrupt people in politics, the Chaudharies. It beggars belief that he could not find more honest people in Pakistan than these loan defaulters
