Wahltag in Deutschland

Today is German election day!!! It looks like the Conservative Merkel of CDU/CSU will win, but it's not clear how much she will win by. She will probably become chancellor in this most unlikely situation: the so-called traffic-light coalition. This coalition combines the red (SDP), green (Grün), and Yellow (FDP) parties. Yes, the parties have colors, like blue and red states. These parties have pledged not to work together however, but no one plans to work together, but it's gonna be necessary.
More likely, Merkel will succeed Schröder as Chancellor. She will be the first German Chancellorette ever. If she were to have her choice, she would be able to have an outright majority, unlikely. Or she would rule with the FDP, federal-liberal party, which shares some of her goals, but not all.
Merkel has been losing ground lately, in part because of her choice of one ultra conservative to become finance minister, should she win. He has suggested some changes which are very unwelcome in Germany. Merkel is trying to distance herself. Also, Merkel just doesn't have the charisma of Schröder. He works the rope line and interacts with people. That's his Schtick. Merkel kind of gets up there and lectures. Finally, since the beginning of this Wahlkampf (campaign), the question has been on the CDU/CSU to say what they will do to change things. How will they lessen the unemployment? How will they fix the very real problems in the economy? What will they do with the EU? Turkey? The answer has been a garbled "We will fix the problems that need fixing and....uh...Schröder has done a bad job.. and...well...rot-gruene is over!" As of now according to Wahlstreet on the zeit.de webpage:
