Near-doppelganger wins Swedish election
If I shaved my beard, wore simple sweaters and stood around pretending to read Swedish newspapers, I could almost pass for Sweden's new prime minister!
Just check out that hairline! Is that suddenly fashionable now? FINALLY!!!
A center-right alliance led by Moderate Party leader Fredrik Reinfeldt (pictured) won power in the home of my grandparents Sunday, ousting the Social Democrats.
The Social Democrats had held a virtual stranglehold on Swedish government, ruling the nation for all but 10 of the past 89 years.
Reinfeldt is only ONE YEAR OLDER THAN ME, which is a bit deflating.
He is running the COOLEST, HIPPEST country in Scandinavia and I am a lowly health reporter for a newspaper in a town most people outside of a 100-mile radius cannot properly pronounce.
Oh well... Who wants to run a country while wearing simple sweaters and standing around pretending to read Swedish newspapers, anyway?
