Seems as thought the right is winning everywhere today...except here.

“he has announced a crackdown on law and order”
Because if left unchecked, law and order will run rampant.

Yes, I noticed that the Brit’s Labour (liberal) party is going downhill.
Add France, Poland, Germany to those which recently changed much more tot he right side.

"It showed that the anti-immigration, Right-wing Northern League..." The Lega Nord supports secession or at least federalism. But all this journo can point to is that they are anti-immigrant, as if that were unique.

The rightists will sweep Europe, and sweep the muslim scourge out...and Obama will insist on taking them here.

In reality, the center right is winning about 3/8ths of the vote across Europe. That is better than the socialists certainly, but it is not a majority nor is it an increase. The socialists have gone from a quarter of the vote to a fifth. Centrist liberal "squishes" continue to hold the balance of power, with a nineth of the vote, down from an eighth. The big winners are splinter party kooks of every description. The greens also increased slightly. Every other established party lost.
The fringe kook vote now comes to over 30% Europe-wide, up from 23%. That is splintered across greens, hard left, hard right, all around 5%, and assorted fruits and nuts for the other half.

Hey Republicans..... Are you listening?

I am thinking of the “I’ll show you how an Italian dies” fellow that AQ terrorists shot. That guy is a hero.
Va bene, Italia. Va bene. Gracie.

...even over our dead bodies. Perhaps preferably so.

Just wait—the movement that is sweeping Europe will come here sooner rather than later. We just need a leader to come forth. I would like to see someone who can really speak well, someone who is, perhaps, a war hero, a Conservative and a person who will restore America’s glory. Col. North if nominated would you serve?
To: bruinbirdman
interesting how Europe, having experimented with the idiocy of socialism, is trending right...while Americans, mesmerized by an telepromter reading hack, is trending left.

The Greek nationalist Pro Christian party (LAOS) won big too. Not enough but a victory nonetheless.

To be fair Evan Bayh would probably be considered a far right-winger over there.
