Zuma vs Mbeki: Battle lines drawn :

Mail & Guardian Online: "The battle between President Thabo Mbeki and new African National Congress president Jacob Zuma is far from over, if perceptions conveyed in the Sunday newspapers are anything to go by.

In an editorial, City Press said the delegates at the ANC's national conference at Polokwane last week chose Zuma and 'that is the future'.

Since then, Zuma and Mbeki had been at pains to proclaim they were friends."
