Love that Irony department

Remember how the Prime Minister of Luxembourg talked about making the French and Dutch vote again and again until they had the right outcome?

seems his own people may not be so agreeable.

"If they say 'no'. then the constitution will be buried. But I hope that we can revive it," added Juncker.

The steady rise of the "no" camp, which the last authorized polls put at 45 percent of the vote in early June, has come as a shock to the country's political class, which is overwhelmingly in favor of the constitution.

Juncker said that the country's pro-European reputation was perhaps deceiving.

"Luxembourg is not this happily europhile country that's shown to the rest of the world," he said.

"The battle has been tough, but it's had its virtues because it allowed Luxembourgers talk about what Europe they want," he added.

But protesters, rallying here against the constitution on Saturday, said that the debate had shown that politicians were out of touch with their electorate.

"I hope, but I'm not sure that the 'no' can win," said Andre Lecuit, a 65-year-old retired teacher.

"The established parties are all for the 'yes' and the government did not give a euro to the partisans of the 'no'. You'd think it's East Germany," he said.

So when some one -else's- voters say No.. screw them. but when your people say no... well that's a whole other matter.

I hope we see the third no vote... and then the 4th...and etc.
