Spanish Fly

So, the sangria-swilling surrender monkeys are scared enough to throw the bum out:

[Mariano] Rajoy, who first challenged for the premiership in 2004, is expected to unseat the Socialists on Sunday amid widespread unhappiness with José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, who has announced he will stand down after the vote.

I guess all that Cambio didn’t work out for España. This is what happens when you freak out and cave in to terrorists. This is what happens when you cave in to socialism via AGW dogma. You end up destroying your economy, and try to fix it by changing the guard back to conservatism. At least until such time as you feel you don’t need it any more.

The election in Spain is likely to mark a third change of prime minister in one of the four embattled southern EU countries – Portugal, Italy, Greece and Spain – in the space of a few weeks. But Rajoy would be elected by the people, unlike Lucas Papademos and Mario Monti, the new technocratic prime ministers of Greece and Italy.

That’s right. THREE of the FOUR have changed PMs. The Socialists in Spain are trying to downplay the debacle by blaming it on banshees, minotaurs, and a disgruntled Dyonisus investors looking for a scapegoat. But every pendulum eventually swings back. Unfortunately for these countries, it may be too late.

But we can at least enjoy some Spanish eyecandy.
