Blair set to hail victory of war ally Bush

LONDON (AFP) - British Prime Minister Tony Blair (news - web sites) was due to bestow warm congratulations on his closest ally in the Iraq (news - web sites) war, George W. Bush, as the Republican incumbent clinched a hard-fought win for the US presidency.


The prime minister, whose fortunes have been bound to his commitment to the transatlantic alliance, was expected to make a formal statement later Wednesday.


After a tense endgame debate over whether pivotal state Ohio could flip to John Kerry (news - web sites) and flip the Democrat's fortunes, the Massachusetts senator called Bush to concede defeat.


Bush was to give a victory speech at 2000 GMT.
