re: #43 zombie

Charles, note the subtle difference between what you say in this thread…:

I know it may seem like a minor difference, but in this instance, I think it could be significant. Not only has Wilders not yet formed an alliance, it seems he is not yet even “planning” to form an alliance. He is simply thinking out the possibility, or “considering” it. (Which,I agree, would be a big mistake.)

But let’s not yet completely throw Wilders under the bus until we see what he actually does. He’s heading in the wrong direction, but he doesn’t seem to have crossed the line yet.

Maybe he can step back and save his credibility. He still has time.

(Proviso: I don’t follow Dutch politics on a day-to-day basis, so I don’t know what Wilders may have said in recent weeks concerning Vlaams Belang.)

Wilders’ plans to ally with the VB have been confirmed to me by other sources.
