The shrinking profile of Taro Aso

As Taro Aso’s approval ratings continue to drop, FTV News has noted that the LDP’s latest promotional poster has dropped its emphasis on the Prime Minister:

small aso

Whereas the previous posters put out by the LDP (right) had a huge image of Aso’s face with a slogan proclaiming that Aso would fix things, the new poster (left) shrinks down Aso and doesn’t even include his name.

Anti-Terror Performance

LDP Aso is a sign the days of the humiliating post-war regime which Koizumi was a part of in Japan are numbered. I expect DPJ to take charge and a shift away from the US-Japan relations while working towards a more pro Asia stance. I expect US to do what it can to stop this trend due to their hegemony inferior complex.
