Election? What Election?

BBC News reports from Afghanistan on an election that is getting more attention from the White House memos than the locals:

"The story of this election campaign so far is that there isn't one - at least not one you can really see and sense that people are talking about... there have been no big public rallies or campaign events of any size - just the occasional speech to a handful of people.

For a campaign that's officially been underway over two weeks, in a country that's never had a proper election, many were expecting a bit more by now."
