Check this out -- a MB candidate, Al-Futuh, "is largely viewed as a moderate, supporting women's and minority rights as well as ties with the West."

Theoretically speaking, there's no such thing as a moderate member of the Muslim Brotherhood, is there? This guy doesn't sound like an Islamist.

The other interesting point is they don't want the Presidency.
