I wouldn't give Musharraf too much credit. He hasn't exactly been the most reliable ally in the area.
Besides, given the nature of the divided opposition, he can probably play each faction against each other and stay in the game.
No doubt D.J. that Musharraf hasn't always been a true ally but in Pakistan is pretty important, in that region, to America's relations in the middle east as a whole.
