Did Yanukovich do it?  Or, is it too early to tell?  What's the mood among the voters?

Too bad your candidate lost but the one bright spot in the election was that the democratic process worked.  The election was not decided until the very end and there was no evidence of fraud or violence, at least any that I'm aware of.

It will be interesting to watch and see if Ukraine goes "eastern" or "western".  If the country goes western, it probably will not join NATO but could make overtures toward joining the European Union.  Going eastern, i.e. close ties with Russia, could be a big mistake.  In either case, the country must now concentrate on geo-economics, rather than geo-politics.   Good luck!
