Conservatives Win Big in Elections

(AP) Conservatives scored victories in some of Europe's largest economies Sunday as voters punished left-leaning parties in European parliament elections in France, Germany and other nations.

Some right-leaning parties said the results vindicated their reluctance to spend more on company bailouts and fiscal stimulus to combat the global economic crisis.

The European Union said center-right parties were expected to take the most seats - 267 - in the 736-member parliament. Center-left parties were headed for 159 seats. The remainder were expected to go to smaller groupings.

Right-leaning governments were ahead of the opposition in Germany, France, Italy and Belgium, while conservative opposition parties were leading in Britain and Spain. - CBS News Story

Could this be a sign to come. Conservatives are sweeping elections and the opposition to the big spending Left is coming to life. It may not be here in America, but it will make life more difficult for the LEADER OF CHANGE in the USA.
