European Tribune - Comments - Thanks to my fellow Germans

If the US became a "Hot Topic" of the German elections...I was wondering if there would be any fall out... from this election in the US? Specifically, for Hilliary who is modelling herself after Margret Thatcher... Merkel's role model.

Re: Just wondering... (none / 1)

Lets hope...one Thatcher was enough...and I actually believe Americans are having heavy buyers remorse, and will respond well to an honest, person who cares about the welfare of the people (versus a finger-in-the-wind corporatist...sorry, Hillary...)

Re: Just wondering... (none / 1)

There was much speculation and praying from Blair and pro-war US contingent (ie GOP along with the DLC/NDN) that a Merkel victory would ease the European rift with the US.

I am wondering now if this is the reason that Bill suddenly is creating distance between "The Clintons" and "The Bushes"... it is a bit supicious that Bill suddenly remembered that he was a Democrat...yesterday.
