Those that know something about German politics, is there any party that would be close to mainstream conservatism in Germany? It's difficult to tell as they label everything extreme right in these socialist nations.

If not conservative, is there a party that is at least sane?

IIRC, the Christian Democrats are about the closest to center-right you will find..
Compared to US politics, a Christian Democrat would probably be a "moderate"..

I can answer that question for you.The one party that comes closest to the Republican party here is the CDU.
CDU=Christian Democratic Party
