Brandt stumbled about GDR spying revelations ... disastrous pretty much in anything but Eastern politics ... building solidarity among social classes. He was an outspoken character, but sometimes he spoke too early.
Schmidt was very disastrous actually. He looked very well, and was a great speaker, also I would say he was anglo-leaning, and therefore maybe better understandable there than to our immediate neighbours. With France he seemed to get along well, but France did not seem to act trustworthy at the time. All in all he came down to a Schroeder problem: his allies said he was trying the right policies being in the wrong party ...

That is why I found it revealing that Schroeder used a Schmidt-formula in his great budget speech, as I posted you.

I have to jump now, as for me it's Good Night, bye-bye, MNI
