Why should Orban resign????
"DIVIDED OPPOSITION
Conceding defeat, opposition leader and former Prime Minister Viktor Orban told supporters: "Those who join forces win and the losers are those who are unable to cooperate."
The election commission projections put the Fidesz party led by Orban on 164 seats and the smaller right-wing Hungarian Democratic Forum, which Fidesz failed to woo, on 11 places after the two rounds of voting. "
This was just another example of the fatal disease of the conservatives, which seems like conservatives the world over, including in the US are unable to learn. They are so busy fighting amongst themselves about who is more conservative, that they don't see the liberals/socialists coming to victory as a result.
The same thing happened with Berlusconi -- the c onservatives were split, the soicalists/communists united and won.

"Orban should resign..."
If the Fidesz does nor squeeze him out, then they deserve him and it serves them right. Your error lies in assuming that his motives are selfless and altruistic while the Occamite explanation would be to ascribe his behavior [in not resigning] to such a base thing as power lust.

I met the Young Orban in the early 90s, and he was good, but the present older populist version should resign from Fidesz, not only due to the fact that he has passed the age limit of 35 ;-)

It's hard for people to cut the ties to Big Brother. Look at the US...leftist demagogues know which buttons to push to instill fear into people all the time.
