Morgan Tsvangirai - Zimbabwe's Next Leader?

Morgan Tsvangirai is the head of Zimbabwe's opposition party and over the last decade has made unsuccessful attempts to unseat the country's longtime president Robert Mugabe. Now in 2008, the 55-year old Tsvangirai is caught in an election stalemate. His party won control of parliament from the ruling party on March 29th but the presidential election results have not been announced. VOA's Chris Simkins has a profile of the opposition leader who has struggled for change in Zimbabwe

Tsavangirai continues to dissapoint on a number of scores.He still seems to lacks the tactical noose to outplay a veteran like Mugabe and makes some dangerously trivial errors of judgement which often play right into Zanu's hands.
