There is no effing way Blatter wins. I would be shocked because you would think some of these dirtbag heads of FA's would want to lay low and not attract even further scrutiny from this fallout. Cut your losses and hope for some US govt heat to fade away. Voting in Blatter is basically inviting some serious heat from Uncle Sam and Switzerland. They're just asking for it.

Some quick math shows just how tough it will be for Prince Ali to win. In Africa and Asia alone there are 100 votes, of which Blatter probably has 90 or more. That means he just needs to pick off 15 votes from the tiny island nations in the Caribbean, South Pacific, and maybe Russia and a few in South America for good measure. Even if every single highly-developed country—the country you probably live in, the countries that produce the anti-Blatter soccer media that you read—votes against Blatter, it isn’t nearly enough to oust him.

Uncle Sam can't do shite unless your deals happened on US soil or through US banks.
