Another Pro-American candidate wins in Europe...
The center-right party in Denmark won re-election today led by Pro-Bush Anders Fogh Rasmussen.
The BBC reported:
Denmark's governing coalition, led by Prime Minister Anders Fogh Rasmussen, has won a general election, but is one seat short of an absolute majority.Out for a ride with his buddy...
With all the votes counted, his Liberal-Conservative led government has taken 89 of the 179 seats in the Folketing, the country's parliament.
Mr Rasmussen could be forced to seek support from a new party headed by a Syrian-born Palestinian immigrant.
Turnout was higher than in the previous poll, held in 2005, at over 86%.
Mr Rasmussen, 54, who won a third consecutive election after the 2001 and 2005 victories was in a jubilant mood.
"Everything indicates that the government can continue," he told his supporters after victory became clear.

thank God those at a distance can clearly see what the moonbats are turning US into.. hence, they are bracing themselves just in case a Dem wins in 08.. ironically, those who profess freedom for all are the ones creating the ruination of civilization along with their allies the Islamists.. :(

Rasmussen has been a staunch Bush and US ally. He even made it to Camp David which is quite an honor for a foreign leader.
And, his stand against radical Islamists attacking the Danish press was impressive.
This was great news.
Politicians from the US Democratic Party are very popular with those who hate the United States--wherever they may be in the world.
I participated in the campaign and am full of relief. It looked bad in the polls, but we came back with a vengeance. As last time :)
Technically the majority is there (the BBC got it sligthly wrong), but it's only 90 seats of 179. We'll work with the new centrist party, and the Social Democrats if they make sense.
Unfortunately, the Social Democrats seem more bent on annoying the current government than doing practical politics. It's been like that for a while.
I am so glad to see this! I was concerned but it looks like the people rallied and have spoken! I think his movie star looks help too :) Yes, of course, I am a woman..sue me!
Good looking and good policies, what's not to like?
That's great news for Denmark! Congratulations!
