Ukraine at a crossroads

As much as I am in love with Yulia "Gas Princess" Tymoshenko (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yulia_Tymoshenko), I feel that we must all rally around Viktor "Mr Dioxin" Yushchenko (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viktor_Yushchenko) as being the best bet for a Ukraine which is orientated towards the relatively benign European Union, which in turn is its best chance for economic development, political freedom, and national independence.

It appears to me that Mr Dioxin is clearly the only man of sufficient principle to bring stability to Ukraine.

It appears to me that the Gas Princess is clearly fundamentally interested in personal gain, and will bring a culture of sleaze and the instability that goes with it to Ukrainian politics.

Who was it who said "A house divided against itself cannot stand"?

The question is, is Mr Dioxin sufficently Machiavellian in nature and does he have enough raw cunning power to defend himself against a woman who seems to have far more personal force than he does?
