Europe is moving rightward. This weekend, conservatives defeated the Left in Greece. In Austria's Carinthia province, Joerg Haider's Freedom Party shocked observers by vanquishing socialists at the ballot box. The victory ensures that the troubling Haider will retake his position as the province's governor. The results in Greece and Austria follow victories by the Right in Portugal, Italy, and elsewhere on the continent in recent years. In less than a week, Spanish conservatives are expected to take the parliamentary elections.

Why are these diverse parties of the Right gaining popularity in liberal Europe? Voters are sick of economies ruined by overbearing bureaucracies, the increasingly powerful European Union diminishing national sovereignty, and the radical alteration of native populations by waves of unlimited immigration.

nice to be seen
