Let's say Björn Engholm isn't tarnished by affairs and is the SPD candidate for the chancellorship in 1994.

Let's say Helmuth Kohl knows he needs to retire while at the climax of his power and endorse Wolfgang Schaüble as the CDU (and CSU) candidate for the chancellorship.

Engholm is quite popular and is good in medias. He is more moderate than Lafontaine and the old guard. But he is a bit unknown and it seems too early to have PDS in a coalition.

Schaüble is more moderate in 1994 than he is now. He's quite popular. He benefits from the "Reunificator"'s support. But the FDP is weak and the economy isn't in goood shape, and the eastern parts of Germany already cost a lot.

Who wins ? Why ? Discuss.

Do you think it's possible to have a minority SPD-Greens government with an outside support from the PDS ?

He probably wouldn't have made it past state minister in that case. Tongue

Look, this section "international what-ifs" is, for the moment, far less fun than the American one.
And in big European countries, there aren't many possibilities of alternative "duels": I'm trying to create some in UK, Germany and France.

So, yeah, what if Kohl is not Kohl...
