An excellent diary, and I would love to read more of them, but I cringe a bit when I read "anti-European" and "pro-European". It is a rethoric that uses basically empty terms to point at constitutional policy positions, building the terms up is setting them up - in the long term - to be used for labeling resistance to any policy proposal as "anti-European".

To see an example, replace European with American.

I would much prefer say "federalist/anti-federalist" or "centralist/decentralist" as those terms actually says something on the constitutional policy positions.

A vote for PES is a vote for EPP! A vote for EPP is a vote for PES! Support the coalition, vote EPP-PES in 2009!

Or, as in the graph, pro/anti EU integration.
