Why Russia says the Georgia's president saakashvili calling him as a political corpse ?

Question

what is the meaning to political corpse.

Answer 1

They are saying his political career is over. He promised to retake South Ossetia and unite it with Georgia and Russia stepped in and whooped his butt. So his promise is unkept, Georgia got a butt-whippin' and he will likely not be re-elected.

Then again, Kruschev said, "We will bury you" during the Cold War, and in fact ... we buried the communist party.

So given all of that, I'd say in their eyes he's a political corpse, but from my point of view, Russia's got a lot of spainin to do.
