Abstract
Afghan politics has entered its most potentially divisive phase since the overthrow of Taliban rule nearly three years ago. President Hamid Karzai is likely to win the election scheduled for Oct. 9, but he may have little to celebrate. On the domestic front, there will be no legislature to back his government for at least another six months. And he'll face a number of disgruntled election losers who exercise considerable military power in different parts of the country.
