Have you ever fantasized about a new generation of Bulgarian politicians, well-educated, efficient and adept in their public appearances? If yes, keep dreaming. In no, don't even bother to try imagining it. Bulgaria's Volen Siderov has seen enough media mocking already, and yet his interview for Der Standard shows he hasn't learn a basic lesson. To enjoy public approval and respect, a politician needs to prove he is a level-headed and sensible person. His party stormed the elections riding on the wave of nationalistic affects, but in the long run emotions are not everything.
