#1 What a terrible name for a PM from a G7 country. Can you imagine Bush telling his secretary to get "that Aso from Japan on the line"?

#2 "Aso" means "dog" in Tagalog.

There will be some mild humor in Manila, though nobody cares very much who is the Japanese PM.

#3 lots of conservative winners recently. I suspect we will see the same here. I think the labor party will die in the 21st century.
