Mostly Good News for the CDU

By Timothy R Butler | Posted at 8:44 PM

I'm rather pleased to see the Christian Democrat Union (CDU), with Angela Merkle at the helm, has come out ahead in Germany. I am disappointed that she was not able to get the 40% that would have been necessary to allow the “preferred” coalition that has been talked about over the past few weeks, but even if she must work with Schroeder's Social Democrats, it will at least force the left to accept some of CDU's ideas. Perhaps this bodes well for the CDU's pro-life platform plank?
