Sadly the story of Schroeder's move from Chancellor of Germany to a Russian Oil Company hasn't gotten much media coverage. Especially funny from the German press because had it been a Bush official they would have been all over the story. Frankly he and Clinton terms of leadership are marked by similarities, both talked a good game before entering office and never could pull together support inside their own party to make anything good happen. If not for the Republicans and CDU/CSU neither would have had any major victories (even with them having to be shared). A waste really.
