The right-wing conservative hinted loudly that the left wing governments of Venezuela (under Hugo Chavez) and Bolivia (under Evo Morales) were somehow behind the protests and financing the conspiracy.

In Italy, Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi's center-right coalition surged 6.9% to secure 35% of the vote, ahead of the center-left opposition at 26%. Spain's governing Socialists slipped 4% to 38.5%, behind the opposition Popular Party at 42.2%, while Portugal's ruling Socialists suffered a stunning collapse in support, by 18 points to 26.6%. And it was a similar story in Hungary: the ruling Socialist MSZP lost more than half its vote, tumbling 18% to just 17.4%, opening the way for the conservative Fidesz...
