Flogging the Simian tells us about Romania's new president, Traian "The Rabbit" Basescu, who defeated Adrian "The Bear" Nastase in a run-off vote. An anti-corruption, pro-EU candidate who has (according to FtS) cried at press conferences as well as cracked jokes, he may be just what Romania needs to get it off the Warsaw Pact dime and move it into the 21st Century. Guess we'll see. Now . . . can he get the parliament to follow him?
Hey -- is that an orange tie he's wearing?
