However, I grant different levels of culpability to them: one made her total opposition public alrewady back in March, and just kept to it (I fault her for not keeping the debate/criticism/ultimatum within the party then), the two other conscientous objectors at leasat made their arguments heard at party congresses earlier, but Walter is just spineless. Even SPIEGEL describes him as hiding behind the principled women.

Sadly, I think the events today mean new elections and another five years of the insufferable Koch. Ypsilanti's only chance is if she can direct blame for the ten-month mess towards the gang of four, while her party members communicate that 95% support towards voters; but the MSM is working against her. Not to mention the federal party leadership.

We'll see what transpires.
