Groundswell for Gamal?

And so it begins.

With all the rumors about Husni Mubarak's health and the gradual fizzling out of the ElBaradei bandwagon, posters are going up around Cairo calling for the nomination of Gamal Mubarak.

Though by all accounts Gamal is one of the least charismatic, most boring candidates imaginable (he's a banker, after all: watch one of his speeches sometime), and at least according to some Egyptians is not even as charismatic as his older brother, Alaa, who prefers to keep making money, he's probably already won the only primary he needs to worry about. But can the President really pull off a hereditary succession?
