...pitching Merkel as honest and unvarnished. Posters depict the 51-year-old former research chemist as apple-cheeked and glowing in an apricot-colored jacket.

The clean-cut, no-nonsense image is meant to make Merkel look more trustworthy than the slicker, suaver Schröder. "If we were to disappoint voters again the way Schröder did in 2002, people would ask themselves whether there is any party they can vote for," says Norbert Röttgen...

...Philippines recover from this crisis? We have been through worse: 14 years of martial law. Everybody has to have the same vision for the country, and that is a better life for Filipinos. Every single day prolongs the agony of the people down there. If we clean up our slate and start anew, I'm very confident we'll be seen in a new light. My idea is that in 2013, 2014, 2015, we can get our house in order and catch up with the competition: Malaysia, Thailand, even Indonesia. It may be pie-in-the-sky right...
