Iran's candidate for change, Mirhossein Mousavi, has failed miserably in his attempt to unseat hard line President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
As reported at Reuters, in part:

"TEHRAN (Reuters) - Hardline President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad won re-election by a thumping margin, official figures showed Saturday, but his moderate challenger rejected the tally as a "dangerous charade" that could lead to tyranny.
"The scale of Ahmadinejad's victory -- he took nearly twice as many votes as former Prime Minister Mirhossein Mousavi with counting almost complete after Friday's poll -- upset widespread expectations that the race would at least go to a second round."
"Iranian and Western analysts abroad greeted the results with disbelief. They said Ahmadinejad's re-election would disappoint Western powers aiming to convince Iran to halt work they suspect is aimed at making bombs, and could further complicate efforts by U.S. President Barack Obama to reach out to Tehran."
Political pundits looking to explain Ahmadinejad's stunning victory need look no further than the White House at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
Here's why: After witnessing the devastation visited upon America by Barack Obama, a smooth talking politician who promised to change everything but whom has only made everything worse, Iranians must have been frightened to turn over the reigns of their nation to an Obama-like phony.
Face it Libtards: Ahmadinejad was reelected because Iranians did not wish to duplicate America's mistake by embracing fool hearty, mindless change just for change itself.
Ahmadinejad's victory proves that the world has caught on to the absurdity of Obamamania and, unlike the America electorate, has rejected said phenomenon with gusto.
Remember, the outrage that is Ahmadinejad was made possible by the outrage that is President Barack Obama!
