I am positive Olmert will lose the next elections, but not because of Lebanon.

Maybe. Between Lebanon and the most recent accusations of fraud, he seems a bit unpopular these days.

Plus, who knows, maybe Israelis are getting tired of fighting. The Likud Party has been very good at stringing along the fallacy of their interest and commitment to the 'road map' for peace, while simultaneously doing everything they could to sabotage it without utterly alienating the US.
Olmert represents the continuation of policies that for years have failed to do anything but ensure the continuation of violence. Maybe Israel is ready to try something else.

Olmert's days in office are numbered and it's not all because of Lebanon....

Yes, because going through a war these days is not good but through peaceful talks it would lead to a answer and problems will be solved.
