And people often get the government they deserve. But I hope that isn't so
in this case.

Some points:
* The last poll before the election had the two parties
within the margin of error.

* EVERYONE called for people to vote to show that the
terrorists could not stop them, and that favorers the left-center
in Spanish politics.

* Anzar played politics with this, trying to blame the ETA
long after he knew that it was Islamic extremists, and the
electorate punished him for dancing on 200 people's graves.

On the third point, good for them.

Using a terrorist attack for political advantage is
despicable.
