They're not elections.
The more the polls say
Poll: Should resign: Peretz 70.9% Olmert 50.2% Early elections 58.6%
and
69 percent thought Prime Minister Ehud Olmert should resign
the harder Olmert will try to preserve his government.
He'll hold on with everything he has, since he's not ready to retire from public life and doesn't want to spend his "golden years" jailed.
Don't underestimate him!
