Now we have it- Angela Merkel will most likely be the new chancellor. Apparently most papers agree that the CDU/CSU have paid a rather high price for the grand coalition and the position of chancellor - 8 of 15 ministerial posts went to the SPD.

SPD: Development, Health, Employment, Exterior, Finance, Justice, Environment, Infrastructure.

CDU/CSU: Family, Education and Research, Interior, Commerce, Defense, Agriculture, and the minister of the chancellory(don't ask me what that is. I have not the faintest clue).

I've been trying to take solace in the fact that she is allegedly female, but it's not working.
