Go sister go!

The discussion about who will succeed Göran Persson as chairman of the SAP is heating up, read some general guidelines from the party newspaper here.

Tomorrow Wednesday we have elections in the Netherlands. Loads of possible coalitions make the whole thing difficult to project; my support is with the PvdA of course. Funny political ad from the PvdA here.

And in another European country – FranceSégolène Royal went all the way, as y’all know. I was happy to see her win, and I think she has a very good chance to become president in 2007. Interestingly enough we now have a French politician who uses the internet a lot, more here and here [in English].

The New Republic is asking an important question: ”Iraq: What next?” Loads of reading here, and at the same time Bush’s approval ratings hit rock-bottom (here).

And when it comes to music, don’t miss that Sweden’s best artist in rock’n’roll – Moneybrother – is about to release a new record. Listen to a new, great song!

And when it comes to movies, both Al Gore (An Inconvenient Truth) and Dixie Chicks (Shut Up + Sing) are up for documentary Oscars.
