I wrote to Annan prior to the 2004 election asking for international monitors-never heard back. Couldn't hurt to ask.

7. Several Senators also tried to get his aid |

I can't recall who they were now but they were all Dem's. He told them they had to go through the Administration. I guess that pretty much was the end of that.

I'll bet the UN will offer help on its own, with or without Bolton's support.
