Olmert was stepping down, and they expect his replacement to be a woman named Tzippy Livni. ZIPPY???? Sorry, but it makes me laugh.

1. Another one

On NPR, they are always going to some guy named "Hugh Johnson" for economic analysis. That's not a name, that's a prank phone call.

2. No I don't think this is a joke. Here's a link to where I found it.

The same poll would appear to show that Kadima, if headed by Tzipi Livni, could win the general elections if held today. The poll found that if the public had to choose between Binyamin Netanyahu (Likud), Tzipi Livni (Kadima), and Ehud Barak (Labor), Kadima would win 27 seats while the Likud would garner 23 seats and Labor would receive 15. Were Kadima to be headed by Sha'ul Mofaz, it would receive only 17 seats. Under Meir Sheetrit, Kadima would take just 13 parliamentary seats.
