Seriously, how many different PMs have they had since 1980? 20?

Since Koizumi left in 2006 they've had 6 PMs.

I'd be interested to hear Nathan on this, but from what I've seen, if Japan was to get a true challenge to the two party system (not an add-on like NK) it would be from the far right, not the left.  That's the natural anti-system protest votes reservoir in Japan.

Does Hashimoto have any traction outside Kansai, though?  From what I'd heard, he wants to basically be the new Ishihara, making Osaka into his own fief.

Hashimoto, Ishihara, and Ozawa under one roof?  Isn't it a cardinal rule of movements like that that you can only have one Fuehrer?  I doubt any of those egomaniacs would yield.

It's kind of hilarious that Ishihara, Hashimoto, and Ozawa all have their own terrible personality cult parties.

If JRP gets second place, do people start freaking out?
