For well over a hundred years....the Social Democrats have existed....leaning just left-of-center. From 1949 to the early 1990s...they could manage to get in the range of 40-percent of the vote....sometimes bumping over 45-percent.
If you look nationally today....with the Greens, Linke Party and BSW....at best, the SPD can only manage around 16-to-20 percent of the vote.
With the state election of the past weekend....it was in the 10-percent range (crappy range).
If you asked about any 'stars' for the party....nationally....there's not much to talk about.
Some folks gaze at the decline of the FDP Party, and remark that they probably will never get above 5-percent nationally ever again...then suggest that the SPD is following the same path.
