Und jetzt: was soll denn in September passieren??? Frau Merkel is no Lady Thatcher, the FDP has lost its bearings, and there's nothing else to choose from. One can only hope that whoever wins will find, deep within, the political courage to loosen the constraints on the labor market (the first big step necessary) and moreover the moral cojones to speak out against the vile pronouncements of Müntefering. If Frau Merkel should win, let us hope that she may yet achieve greatness, or at least have it thrust upon her.
Candidate for Chancellorship Dr. Angela Merkel has just announced she wants tax cuts, paying for it by cutting the budget. We can do better, we will do better. In foreign policy, Germany will come back as a mediator - between the East and West of Europe and between the UK/US and France/Russia.
