I am loving this wake-up call to the established parties of Germany, whose elected representatives are bailing out countries and banks left and right against the will of their electorate. The only parties which seem to represent the will of the voters (on the surface) in this regard are the left and the extreme right. But for historical reasons, many Germans will never vote for them. So the pirate party fills a real void (mainly for youths): as a protest party for disgruntled voters, and as a party which gets the internet and the importance of free/cheap access to knowledge and education.
