may be over for Putin. They've already got people in the streets in St. Petersburg and Moscow (1400 reportedly arrested nationwide). The oligarchs are not going to like losing their piece of the action to sanctions. The army could be beginning to mutiny. It's a lot harder to brand the Ukrainians as terrorists like the Chechnyans. This whole thing is so unbelievably stupid on so many levels it makes one wonder why Putin was looked at as being so shrewd.
