Croatian opposition ahead of ruling HDZ, polls show

That's good news. Let's hope Croatia will get a better and less nationalist government soon!

The HDZ ethos feeds a nostalgia amongst the more primitive in Croatian society for a nasty, intolerant, and extremist past. This tendancy manifests itself in the performances of the lunatic fringe exemplified by the 'singer' Thompson. Supporters running around in black hats and chanting nazi (ustashi) songs turn most decent people's stomaches. The Croat people need to come to terms with their history, reach out to the Serbs in the former Yugoslavia and rid themselves of chauvanism.

It seems that blaming all of Croatia's problems on Serbs didn't work for them this time.

I agree, just like HDZ's sibling in Serbia called Radicals.

Looks like the last remnants of Ustashism are GONE. HDZ had devolved into a strange mix of overt liberalism and covert Ustashism that it became difficult to classify it. Its inability to stay conservative in the face of EU pressure disillusioned many Croat conservatives and crypto-Ustase from voting. which will breed yugonostalgia since Croats buckled under 1% of the pressure Serbs are surviving. Croats obviously lack what it takes to be a regional power and they know as we have all along.

Maybe the Croats are smarter than i thought. Then again, maybe not.

It is good that HDZ is getting the boot so we can have a clear look at all the happenings. Sweep out corruption under their supposed watch and all the cronies of the party maybe even good jail time for the guilty people ,democracy at work. Serb propaganda anti Croatia and Croatians is being seen by the world for what it is as a huge smear campaign by Serbs to take gaze of the world off Serbia's many crimes and wrong doing

Bam Bam,

So, basically Croatia has the same issue as Serbia.

Big Croats who live abroad think they know better what's better for Croatia than Croats.

*noted*

Now we have to work on the corruption of the right and left also staying out of the undemocratic EU BS that the politicians want as a cash cow for them to pillage.

@ lenard so Serbs were the only ones who committed war crimes...LOL. spoken like a true ustas...

No, but they don't have to suffer from the messy situation a nationalist government is creating in the country.

Do I have to remind you that your so called 'Brotherhood & Unity' was controlled by 80% Serb

Bam bam what are you prattling on about?

You have some comedy value though, both in terms of your spelling and in your worship of the the 'godess' Kosor.

Bit of advice though - the money that you and the rest of diaspora Croats are wasting on corrupt politicians like Kosor or Sanader would be better served on your own basic reading and writing skills and those of your children.

As a citizen of Serbia I don't hate Croats, I do look down on idiots though.

All you Partizans on this site have no clue about Croatian politics. The left love to use fascism for anyone that hasn't got Tito's picture on the wall. If you people believe that the love of god.country and faith is wrong then thats your twisted thought. But let me tell you, the diaspora vote is always counted last and 90% of us are HDZ. So to all those people who think that HDZ will just fade away..think again.

Very, very good news.

@ Danilo - Big Croats who live abroad think they know better what's better for Croatia than Croats who live in Croatia.

Well let me tell you, if it weren't for us Croats who live abroad there would be no Croatia today. It would be called a 'Greater Serbia'. The Serbs hate us not because of Jasenovac but because they were so close in creating a 'Greater Serbia' it wasn't funny, to bad we spoiled the future celebration. Do I have to remind you that your so called 'Brotherhood & Unity' was controlled by 80% Serb. Thank god your only 3.5 % in Croatia. HDZ is the only one from the big 3 ( SDS & SDA ) that is still very much alive and well and with the next generation becoming members in record numbers. Jadranka KOSOR is a godess and we will keep bank rolling her political future and when she;s gone her replacement will be just as worthy. Expect at least 10 vetoes when Croatia becomes an "OFFICIAL" E.U member.!
