I hope that the fears they were discussing .. will stir voters enough to limit the left’s effectiveness ..

The German's just might discover that their government has also adopted the US election policies of the Democratic/Communist party.

To wit: He who counts the votes is more important than they who cast the votes.

I don’t get the relevancy of your comment, that can be thrown in about any country at any time anywhere, it is not very meaningful.

I do think the possibility that this Russian invasion and the energy fears of this winter have affected European politics is a valid hope and a certainty to some degree, enough to affect things, who knows, but it does give pro-energy politicians something to work with.
