Albany, New York
The Spanish Socialist Workers' Party has ruled Madrid without considerable electoral opposition since mid-2004, but the nation's 21% unemployment rate brought down Prime Minister Zapatero's socialist comrades hard in yesterday's local and regional elections amid nationwide protests by dissatisfied youth.
However, Prime Minister Zapatero is refusing to hold early national elections.
The Conservative People's Party, which was punished by Spaniard's just seven years ago for supporting the War on Iraq, received two million more votes than their socialist counterparts and now have outright majorities in eight of thirteen regions that held elections.
I hope our friends in Spain realize the pro-war People's Party is not only better for their national security, but for their economic prosperity.
What say you?
