BAGHDAD, Iraq, Feb. 17 — Shiite leaders are pushing a new plan for the transfer of power in Iraq that calls for partial elections, with balloting in the relatively secure Shiite and Kurdish areas but not in the more turbulent "Sunni triangle."

Let's just hope Rove and company don't see this and decide that we should allow balloting "in the relatively secure suburban and rural areas but not in the more turbulent 'inner cities.'"
But, after all, isn't that what the Republicans effectively accomplished in Florida with the purge from the voting rolls of 70,000-plus voters who happened to be black and appeared to have the same name and birthday of convicted felons?
