Center Right Wins in Germany
Merkel signals cautious reforms in new coalition
"German Chancellor Angela Merkel signaled on Monday she would resist pressure for radical reforms from her likely new coalition partners, the pro-business Free Democrats (FDP), and stick to a path of gradual change."
"Economists welcomed the result, saying it would herald pro-market policies, and Germany's blue chip DAX stock market index rose 2.78 percent."
"The SPD was the biggest loser and will join the Greens and Left party in opposition after plummeting more than 11 points to 23.0 percent, its worst result since World War Two. "
Is this a harbinger of elections in 2010 for the U.S.?
