You mean fans cheering on Team Japan? Give me a break! That's what you're supposed to do at a sporting event. If you're afraid of flag-waving idiots, then don't bother getting out of bed in the morning.<BR/><BR/>As for Abe, I'm not keen on him myself. He may be a shoe-in for the next PM but I wonder how strong support for him in the LDP is. What happens if his government doesn't last very long? Who's next in line for the job? I don't see a lot of strong candidates waiting in the wings.<BR/><BR/>Even if Abe is a nationalist bogeyman, I don't beleive the general public feels the same way he does. This might check Abe's ability to do stuff lke get into military adventures or change the constitution.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
