If Angela cannot implement true reforms, then it will be a wasted opportunity for the conservatives.
I favor waiting another turn.
What kind of thinking is that? That conservtives should only be in power if they can initiate "true" reforms? It is a certainty that Angel Merkel can implement no reforms whatsoever if she concedes, and though far from certain that any reforms will result if she wins, the chances are infinitely better. This is not a wasted opportunity. It is an opportunity.
I'm sorry, but I just don't see how giving up is a good way to win anything. By your reasoning, we should have let Al Gore have the White House.
