South African Elections

Well, here we are, the other side of the elections (I haven't heard them referred to yet on the radio as "erections', but I'm sure it will happen before the week is up! Well, congratulations to the South African electorate for managing yet another peaceful election; despite long queues at polling stations and some mysterious bundles of voting papers found in strange places and on the occasional person, the whole thing went off well.
Except for the result: ANC yet again.
I can't understand why a thinking and intgelligent populace would want to appoint as president a person who has so many question marks hanging over his head as to his probity. It seems that, not satisfied with the amount of corruption and nepotism that we have come to regard as normal, South Africans would want to continue in this vein. However, it seems clear to me that Zuma is about to rape this country for all it's worth!
You ain't seen nothing yet!!
