Nawaz to contest elections

Nawaz has decided to contest the elections after all, proving that the political parties cannot be counted on to have any principle whatsoever. I don't understand why he would do this, frankly, even from just sheer pragmatism. What's the point of playing along in a sham election in which the result has already been predetermined, only to play the part of the loser? But in his infinite wisdom, Nawaz has decided that it's worth it. So he too has fallen victim to the arm-twisting of the Americans and the Saudis as well as the deals offered by Musharraf, not to mention his own sheer greed and stupidity.
