Domestic: A week before the elections, Frau Merkel understands that she wont won only by herself, and creates a big alliance based on Expenditure cuts and a re-industialization program leaded by Germany and the northern states of Europe. Tony Blair accepts to go into the candidature as long as UK privileges are maintained, and Van Rompuy signs himself as the 2nd in command.
However, and with a bold move, Berlusconi offers his votes to Nicolas Sarkozy, who starts a populist campaign, based in attacks on inmigration and tax cuts promises. At the same time, Berlusconi engages in a political tour all over Southern Europe attacking Germany and its policies.
After an intense campaign, the candidature formed by Sarkozy/Berlusconi obtains majority with the 51,3% of the votes, and thus they are elected as President and VP of the EU. Several newspapers argue that this candidature is a threat to european unity and freedom, but the voters have spoken.
OOC: Sorry if I made it too long, I guess I got too focused on it. If you want, we can make success as everthing ok, and failure as high dissent...that way we can close this election that went too long
