The only concern I would have would be if the NPD ended up being the deciding vote in the Parliament. (I.e., CDU/FDP has 47% of the seats, SPD/PDS/Green have 47%, NPD making the difference). However, since there are Grand Coalitions in other states, I assume the SPD and CDU could cooperate even in this case, or possibly the FDP (if it passes 5%) would defect to a left coalition.
Judging by the polls, though, if the FDP makes it past 5%, CDU/FDP will almost certainly have a majority. Only if FDP fails but the Greens and NPD both make it will the CDU have a problem. Which sounds like the CDU needs to start thinking about tactical voting. :-)
