I don't trust the validity of an election when someone has ~70% of the vote. I have nothing against Medvedev but honestly why bother...at least his sketch factor is significantly lower than Putin's. |

We all know who will still be running the country though once Medvedev elects Putin as Prime Minister. |

Putin is obviously one very smart man.
He knows he's the hero of many Russians, the saviour of thier economy, etc...by placing a young, attractive, dynamic protege of his as his successor he guarantees his continued influence. I would prefer (not that it affects me at all) to see him appointed to a Regency as opposed to the Prime Minister's office, but either way he will still be guiding policy.
Check ing mate.
Nice. |

Many of the richer ones definitely don't. The poorer usually don't know much about any other choice, as they are manipulated by the state-owned media. |
