I don't doubt it. As for ministerial posts, as much as I would like to see a CDU/CSU person there to make up for having to deal with Joschka Fischer all this time, I think the more important portfolio is Finance.

The Finance Minister will probably be a CDU-person. The Chancellor will be Merkel (CDU), a likely Vice Chancellor and Foreign Minister is Peer Steinbrück (SPD) (the people of Northrhine-Westphalia voted him out of Governor-office in May).
