Basically, by talking about Joumblat's "moral clarity", he is; 1- implying that those who favour a deal lack it. This makes hard for Saad to compromise, since it would mean showing lack of moral fiber. At the very least, it will make the price onerous. 2- he is setting the stage to blame Syria, Aoun and M8 in case the election fails. The light that M8 &Co sees at the end of their tunnel might as well be a train. Johnny boy is not calling for “a compromise President” president as saying which side is up.

How can anyone follow an appeaser and a non imaginative one for that matter. On a second thought, maybe he can get Harb to follow him.
