#1 But his allies are starting to distance themselves from his claims of fraud.

Maybe. But this is the BBC and I notice they don't name any "allies" who are distancing them from him. The MSM couldn't get enough of making sure every vote counted in Floriduh, but since their guy won, they just announce the election is over, nothing to see and move on.

It may be that Berlusconi has lost - but the US and Britain have not congratulated Prodi yet - and I think that says volumes.

#3 heh, I didn't know that. It's tough to prove fraud - and Prodi's probably gonna get to sit in the big chair - but I'm not counting Berlusconi out just yet.
