The Hariri Formula: 3Ms (Men, Material, and Money). Without any shame, and without any false claims, a senior Hariri, Inc official explains to Ash-Sharq Al-Awsat their political approach: he says it comprises the 3MS: Men [No women, of course], Material, and Money. Not even the claims of values, policies, and programs that are made in US political campaigns. Now you know the dirty tricks of Hariri electioneering. In other news, and after the announcement that 9 candidates of the Beirut electoral districts have already won before the vote begins because they face no challengers, it was announced today that 2 candidates from South Lebanon (Bahiyyah Al-Hariri and Usamah Sa`d) have been announced victorious without votes being cast because they also face no challengers. This is emerging as the most predictable election since Saddam's elections.
