Soccer scenario.
X-city has a losing record for their team....so they scouted for a new coach. They (the executive committee) hired Coach Merz. They hired this guy because he had a strategy for 'winning', bringing the economy back, and ensuring jobs.
But at this shift in manpower....the team hired assistant coaches (SPD) who were not tuned into Coach Merz's strategy. The assistant coaches gave priority to cities in debt, reform, higher benefits, and more taxes.
About 18 months into Coach Merz's contract....it's obvious that the team is 50-50.....not really winning....not really losing.
Disgruntled....they are discussing now the dismissal of Coach Merz....to bring either Coach Hendrik Wüst....who seems to be more of a intellectual coach....not really a economics coach. The other choice is Coach Markus Söder....who might be slightly into economics more than than the other guy.
Whoever they hire as coach....he's left with the assistant coaches who aren't reading his strategy or notes......likely to mean 12-to-18 months of 50-50 play, and the city feeling disgruntled.
Added note: Well....rumors started up....that the CSU (a sister party of the CDU and ONLY in Bavaria)....is open to the idea of teaming up with the Freie Wahler (Free Voters Party).....to campaign across the 15 other states. The two slightly more conservatives than the CDU? Yeah.
Anyone's guess that the two might take votes away from the CDU and alienate the CDU-CSU relationship greatly.
My thoughts? Having the CSU-FW Party nationwide? They'd probably take 50-percent of CDU votes.....meaning a national poll situation (CSU-FW near 10-percent and CDU nationally near 10-to-12) percent).
Dividing the nation even more? Yeah.
BS strategy? Maybe....but the question is....has the CDU dug itself a mighty big hole and can't climb out presently?
