ROGER SIMON: How Fraudulent Was The Iranian Election? I’d like to see a mass popular uprising that overthrows the mullahs, and I heard some people sounding positive about that on TV last night, but I’m, sadly, skeptical. I’ve been hearing predictions of such an uprising for years. I’d love to be wrong, though.

Meanwhile, Obama Administration officials suspect fraud. Gee, do you think?

UPDATE: Reader Kevin Harmon sends this video of protests in Tehran.

According to the comments, they’re chanting “Death to this liar government.” Works for me!

ANOTHER UPDATE: Some Tehran street photos on Flickr, via reader Nathan Branch.
