What on earth is going on in Mubarak's mind? He let expectation of his imminent departure grow by announcing a press conference and then uses the opportunity to say that he's staying until the elections. He's supposed to be a politician. I can't imagine anyone having less understanding about how his actions are going to be received. Also, what's in it for him? By staying on, he's only going to compound the negativity. It's the best thing for absolutely everyone involved (including himself) that elections are called immediately.
Does anybody else have these hobbies?
