Now he has cleared out the LDP deadwood and has a brand new mandate for radical reform.
You've heard it on the radio/You've seen it on the tv show: Japan is back on the map.
Here's the man himself speakin' on it:
"I feel as if I have destroyed the old LDP and that a new party has emerged. I had hoped that we would win a majority with our party alone, but we did even better than that. I thank the nation for its support and understanding."
Whoa, "I have destroyed the LDP"? Killer.
It's go time, or as they say in Nihhonland: Ikimasho, mofo, ikimasho.

You know I worry about his visits to Yasukini and Japan's general problem with facing up to its war crimes, etc...but....
Strictly from an economic viewpoint, don't you think it's a good thing that Koizumi will have a free hand to reform the Japanese financial systems?
PS: Is that "Imperialism is Globalism" quote attributed to Koizumi?
