Bhutto was already a president of Pakistan who fled the country in disgrace after stealing from the treasury. I do not think she had all that good a chance at returning to power in January, and cannot believe she thought her chances all that great. Actually, I think she was trying to martyr herself ever since coming back. She was acting recklessly, as Mark Steyn noted, from the first day that ended tragically with 140 dead from a bomb wrapped around an infant in swaddling clothes.
