Steirerbluat cloaks: Farewell to a governor

Von WOM

A crucial moment for Günter Traxler, as a blood clot, typically Styrian, impaired his thoughts on the election Sunday evening. Wouldn't a sip of raspberry juice in his veins have not harmed? The drama of his dismissal as governor led to a kind of self -reflection. The memories of past successes sounded almost embarrassing in these moments.

in Vienna seemed to be threatened by the former ÖVP greats with their blood values ​​in the face of more pressing problems. In your own country, however, this gesture fizzled out without an impression. One could almost say that it was more of a song of past times than a significant call to power.

This short moment of contemplation and the surprising turns of political life leave a bitter aftertaste. Günter Traxler has to redefine his way and the Styrian landscape of politics will have to reorganize without him. A memory of the transience of power and unpredictability of life.
