According to the state-run Isalmic Republic News Agency chief, it’s “liberals, rent-seeking sanctimonious people and economically corrupt persons” who have united against the reelection of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in the June 12 vote. From IRNA:

“Addressing a gathering of sympathizers of the incumbent government, Mohammad Jafar Behdad added that although some people and inclinations against the popular government have emerged since the start of the electoral campaigns, the fact is that such an anti-government coalition was formed three years ago when they became confident that President Ahmadinejad was determined to serve te public and was firm in his stances on the bullying powers.

‘If we analyze the electoral behaviors of some people and inclinations, we will see clearly that their problem with Ahmadinejad is his tough stances regarding public funds and safeguarding national assets against professional rent-seeking people,’ he contended.”

IRNA also reports that Ahmadinejad claims he’ll call out corrupt people during televised presidential debates.
