A few nice responses to the NRW elections (see Melli's entry; Tobias and others at FOE are worth a peep too). And here's the Guardian's coverage of the news that Schroeder has called for a vote of confidence, and another story, which, like many of these reports, compares Merkel to Thatcher...(Oh, wah wah wah, Edmund.)
I also just read that Lafontaine has finally left the SPD. Whether or not a new Linksbündnis will result is still up in the air, as is that new alliance's potential effectiveness. But it might be interesting to watch things develop.
