We ran to same thing around ~2003 but then more right-wing parties started to won and now we're balancing with 9-11% of unemployement. It's an interesting comparison because both our countries have similar population & size.
Also I went once to Spain for two weeks in August and it was really nice :) Only a bit too hot and too many german kids with alcohol. |
Just look at Greece, Iceland and the US, the three main examples of crushed economies. All three conservative-lead until they hit the wall.
Ideology is simply not the pattern here, lol.

I don't know about Greece and Iceland, but in the US Republicans do not equate to conservatives. Not any more, at least.

anti-abortion, anti-gay-marriage, less funding for public schools, more for private ones (often religious), pro-guns and pro-deathd-sentence,... you don't get much more conservative than that
my guess is that you meant there aren't many liberal right-wings anymore, Ron Paul being probably the last such candidate for a while...

Well, it's my understanding that thinking the government should be taking care of those things is a more liberal idea than conservative. Maybe I've gotten it wrong, but don't conservatives usually advocate having less government control of everything?
