Schroeder says he ain't going to play with Merkel:
 Schröder will nicht mit Merkel +++

[20.40] In der gemeinsamen ARD/ZDF-Sendung lehnte ein aufgekratzter Schröder Gespräche mit der Union unter der Prämisse von Merkel als Kanzlerin ab. Das kriegen Sie nicht hin", sagte der SPD-Politiker in der "Berliner Runde". "Die Deutschen haben in der Kandidatenfrage eindeutig votiert", fügte er hinzu. Kanzler könne nur er sein.


... Schroeder opposes talks with the CDU under the premise of Merkel becoming Chancellor. "You can't make that happen", he says in the "Berliner Runde" "The Germans have voted clearly with regards to the Chancellor candidature," he added. He is the only one who could be Chancellor.

That seems to be a hot and spicy love-hate relationship ... ?
