Shiite winners still need to cut deal
Runner-up Kurd alliance is likely coalition candidate
BAGHDAD, Iraq - Talks on who would get what in Iraq’s newly elected National Assembly were under way Monday even before the final results came in, but the clergy-backed Shiites, whose winning margin was less than what they expected, may now have to compromise more than anticipated.

Even the reluctant Sunnis are in on this. Aw shucks. The Far Left was SO intensely hoping for a civil war. Damn!
