This seems quite different from so many previous postings, about forming a unified gov. w/o Maliki.  I hope this is a news source that is controlled by Maliki.

I would not count out the PM. He is in the best position to lead another term. .....

If Maliki stays, it could be a good thing since the cbi said they are waiting for political stability before they change their monetary policy. It took years instead of the required month to seat the current gov't....I'd hate to have to wait all over again for a new pm and council to be seated.

The UN reps have been meeting with Barzani and Najafi the last day or so, there is no way M is staying unless he is put in the straightcoat to implement what he agreed to and never, ever did. Everyone has had it with him.
