I really don't doubt that you are right Donut, but I seem to recall that Bill Clinton won a similiar vote over NAFTA here in the States. The Democrats in Congress at the time hardly voted for it. All the support came from the Republicans. He still won re-election, the next go around.

I also think, short of a French veto, a UN resolution will be passed in the coming weeks for declaring Iraq in material breech. At least that is what the news is reporting here. Apparently Russia and China look like they are going to abstain along with possibly Mexico. The rest may well vote for the Material breech resolution. That leaves France and Germany out on a limb by themselves.
