I have several friends who live there and I have been watching the debates and coverage....it is very exciting for the conservatives......
I like much about Angela Merkel(sp?).....she sounds tough and I loved it when she said that she would renew relations with the USA and keep our differences behind closed doors where they have always been, never aired in public.
Anyway, will be watching the election......
The Germans are saying "Go Angie Go". There are a lot of liberal women who will vote for her as the first female leader in the history of Germany.
We just need to be careful not to have President Bush threaten war between now and Sunday. :-)
