Then Schroeder and Gore can cry into their beers together, and keep muttering that they really won the election.
Where is Helmut Kohl when you need him?
I'm w/you.
When is Chirac up for re-election? I know his opposition is doing MUCH better than he is. (Isn't his approval ratings somewhere in the 20's?)
How will the global climate change if Schroeder and Chirac are both gone?
If Angela cannot implement true reforms, then it will be a wasted opportunity for the conservatives.
I favor waiting another turn.
In Germany, for the better.
In France, for the worse (as hard as it is to believe).
Chirac is the "Conservative" in France.
Three words normally not used in the same sentence.
This election has been fun to watch.
They could always dig into the peanut bowl while having those beers and gain confidence in knowing that a Nobel prize winner who agrees with them showed their way to be a firm and accepted one via his own actions.
Unpredictably as it always has.
Schroder is beging to sound like Algore Lite!
The King County Elections Board just called in. Apparently Christine Gregoire is the new chancellor of Germany.
Words mean different things in different places.
"How will the global climate change if Schroeder and Chirac are both gone?"
===
It will probably stop global warming, if those two will stop emitting hot air.
"“Schröder’s claim to victory is untenable but time is running out for both challengers,” said Axel Murswieck, a political commentator. “His aim now appears to be to take Merkel down with him as a sort of final blow against conservatism.”
I can believe this.
The Gotterdamerung of the German Left?
Probably the single most telling lines of the story.
The (international) socialists have Russia, France,and Germany's (socialist) leaders as the ONLY dominance against Bush worldwide: In fact, Germany and France the "rest of the world" that the democrat socialists are talking about when they complain about international opposition to US/UK efforts against Muslim terrorism.
See my comment in #19.
Shroeder should have hired "Serpenthead Carville".
Nice comment
Chriac's replacement will be worse than him. Unless it is Le Pen, but it won't be.
