Well this is bad news although not tragic if you actually look realistically at developing a completely new government and use history as a lesson. Nonetheless, I am sure Democrats will be cheerfully displaying their gloom and doom theme today
BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Last-minute disagreements appeared to have derailed Iraq's hopes of unveiling a government on Thursday, nearly three months after elections, with negotiations also strained by a surge in violence.
Iraqi President Jalal Talabani told Turkish television he did not think a deal could be reached, reversing hopes he expressed on Wednesday. Disagreement remained evident among the main factions -- Shi'ite Muslims, Kurds and Sunnis.
'I think the government will not be announced today ... We want to see the Sunni Arabs represented as well ... Negotiations also continue over the allocation of some posts,' the Kurdish leader told Turkey's CNN Turk television in an interview.
