Let me know. Try not to rant. Keep it anonymous.
I really do want input.

Putin's Successor
This weekend, Russians are almost certain to choose as their next leader a man who strikes much of the world as a cipher.
With Russia's opposition silenced and its major media mostly under Kremlin control, First Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev is heavily favored to win Sunday's presidential election. Vladimir Putin, who handpicked Mr. Medvedev to succeed him, is barred by Russia's constitution from running for a third consecutive term. Mr. Medvedev has invited the popular Mr. Putin to stay on as prime minister, the government's second-most-powerful job.
The central mystery of Mr. Medvedev is whether he will call his own shots -- and, if he does, how he will rule.
Barring unforeseen events Medvedev will become the next Russian president.
