Does the Conservative landslide victory in Spain over a pro-Obama Socialist...

[Obama]

...government serve as a premonition? The socialists campaigned on a platform of ‘taxing the rich.’ Meanwhile, the conservatives campaigned on a program to slash taxes, especially on businesses.

Consequently, the conservatives won in an historic landslide.

I rather doubt it but.....I will bo working hard to make it happen......how about you?

You are totally misinformed, The Spanish gave a punishment vote, they have no love for the conservatives, they were just fed up with the so called Socialists who did nothing resembling Socialism to help them. If you think this is a confirmation of conservatism in Europe I suggest you look at the popularity of the Conservative governments in Britain, France and Israel, all are on the nose with the people. The issue is the failure of any governments to deal with the greedy banks and financiers who have stolen from all of us, and I include the IMF in that. You could put a cardboard box in as president at the moment and the result would be the same, it is time to address the real issues and forget the republic\Democrat football game, it is over, no one except Wall Street won.

Doubtful...Spain is a socialist country full of subservient sheep.

[Michaeln]

Well, that's true, along with the economic disaster caused by that.

[STEPHEN]

nothing at all

[Atreus]

The politics of Spain take place in the framework of a parliamentary representative democratic constitutional monarchy, whereby the Monarch is the Head of State and the President of the Government is the head of government in a multi-party system. Executive power is vested in the government. Central legislative power is vested in the two chambers of parliament.

The Muslims bombed trains in Madrid and the Spanish people folded like a cheap lawn chair.

Don't expect any great things from them.

[BadWolf63]

Nope.

But the one in NY-9, NV-2 and Virginia should do
