re: Japan & LDP
My bets are on the LDP and their allies (Conservatives, Komei, Liberals)... they will literally drive home this election big time, premier Koizumi will get a sound mandate and the market will soar next week - my prediction only - take it for what it's worth <g>

If so, most likely, it will look good. See below

TOKYO (Reuters) - Japanese voters have a tough decision to make on Sunday: stick with a long-ruling party and its fractious mix of reformists and foot-draggers, or opt for an untested opposition promising to become an agent of real change.


Polls suggest most will take the low risk option, handing popular Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi's camp a comfortable win in the first general election since he took office in 2001.
