    The prelude to CSU party congress in DerNürnberger exhibition Hall could hardly look more harmonious: Horst Seehofer moves his chair to left, very close to Markus Söder, his finance minister and years of Parteiinternen adversary. Ten days ago, Seehofer pacified conflict between two: He remains party leader, Söder becomes prime minister. And so that nobody comes up with idea that whole thing was only atre, whispering Seehofer and Söder so long, intimate and extensively with each or, until Creatinga last camera in hall pictures of reconciliation between two eingefangenhat. Several times, a technician has to ring gong until AlleJournalisten and delegates are tired and take ir seats. Then DerParteitag can begin.

    So pictures are correct, as general secretary Andreas Scheuer calls "Party Congress of Unity and Unity" a little later. Only: Why should this be something special for a party that carries union in its name?

    A brief review of past two years makes it clear. The union behaved for a long time as athletes do in corner football. Let teachers play, if y do not have desire for pedagogical Wertvollekörperliche training and rain forces class into hall: n pylons are placed in every corner, four teams are placed, re is a ball, and it is losgebolzt – everyone against each, Until last hat is shot too. In fact, everything is allowed, including brute violence.

    So similar looked what dieUnion last played: Seehofer shot against Merkel shot against Seehofer shot against Söder shot against Merkel. In between, substitute players Guttenberg, Herrmann, Aigner, Weber, Spaenle and young Union were wooded. There followed a euphoriefreie reconciliation between Merkelund Seehofer in February, a disastrous Bundestag election in autumn and new double-headed Söder/Seehofer.

    Merkel as a guest – is this good?

    "Legendary Unity", HorstSeehofer calls state of mind in which he habenwill union in meantime, even though personal Verletzungennach are sitting in deep. So CSU chief believes in SelbsterfüllendeProphezeiungen: The more you talk about something, truer it becomes. Therefore, at beginning of party day, he drives everything he has to offer – including CDU chief and executive Chancellor as guest speaker AmFreitagnachmittag.

    Two years ago, Seehofer had scolded her for DemParteitag for a quarter of an hour before assembled delegates because of IhrerFlüchtlingspolitik. The Chancellor stood on stage unwilling to version. The year after, she wasn't even invited. Manwolle did not play a false reconciliation, Seehofer said to declaration.

    Now she is back in Nuremberg. Before she comes on stage, party congress is still debating applications, such as valued of animal shelters. Meanwhile, Merkel is still advising with Seehofer, General Secretary Scheuer and or representatives of party leadership. When CSU chief and CDU chief n enter hall, Merkel is received politely, but more than that. "Wher you mirglauben it or not, I'm happy to be here," opens Chancellor IhreRede. "The last two years were not easy." Siealso has not forgotten.

    Suddenly applause

    Merkel strives to enter BayerischenBefindlichkeiten in her speech. "We know you have an important Landtag choice. And we will do everything to get you a great result for Bayern, "she says. Markus Söder offers you a "good cooperation". The union represents ' KlareVorstellungen on our values. That is what keeps our society toger. " This sounds somehow like CSU's guiding culture, but what exactly Merkel means is not clear. Perhaps applause will remain for you for long distances Mau.

    This is only changing when Merkel addresses constitutional imperative of GleichwertigenLebensverhältnisse in country. While in Munich and AnderenStädten people could barely afford ir homes, "BMCA people in country worry about wher re is even a doctor," she says. The applause is so loud that even Kanzlerinverwundert look up: "Was re now a Twitter signal, also sometimes to klatschenoder what?" Laughter, ice is broken, Merkel has found sound that delegates like. She weared against citizen's insurance and Downand spontaneous clapping interrupted. In Bavaria, emphasize Joachim Herrmanstets, re are no no-go areas. But elsewhere in Germany already. "Daswollen we don't!" she cries. It's going to be noisy in hall again.
