In this picture taken on Saturday, May 11, 2013, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, right, joins hands with his close ally Esfandiar Rahim Mashaei, as he flashes a victory sign, at the start of their press conference, after registering the candidacy of Mashaei for the upcoming presidential election, at the election headquarters of the interior ministry, in Tehran, Iran. By now, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is well accustomed to enduring blows from Iran's ruling clerics as his reputation fell from favored son to political outcast. But their intended parting shot _ barring his chief aide from the presidential race _ may be just the opening act in Ahmadinejad's reinvention as a self-styled opposition force.

Iranian election authorities say several new high-profile politicians including hardliners, reformists, and allies of outgoing President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad have registered for the June 14 presidential elections. The campaign is taking shape as open season on Ahmadinejad's legacy and his combative style that bolstered his stature among supporters but alarmed critics.
