Tears in their Chablis

Looks like the Euroweenies are starting to figure out which way the wind is really blowing...

Conservative parties across Europe are cheering their victory, following four days of voting for the E.U. Parliament that resulted in heavy losses for the left.

Leftist lawmakers like Martin Schulz, president of the parliament's Socialist group, say they are bitterly disappointed with the results.

Schulz says the vote marks a sad period for socialists in Europe. But he says the themes of the left - social values, more market regulation and fighting climate change - are as relevant as ever.

Yeah, Marty... just not to the electorate.
