[laughter] so the idea was to move the talking paper later into the show, but then we just forgot about it. that's the funny thing about stuff, is you forget. there's a lot of things that i'm supposed to do, but i just forgot to do it. one of them was pinch. pinch is somewhere in a closet, probably dying.

what does their showing have to do with the liberal party's victory? >> if they had cooperated with each other, they could have been a strong alternative to the established parties. at one point they tried to forge a coalition, but they failed to overcome their differences. as a result, it forced candidates to go against each other. they gave they're established parties, especially the established ldp, more chances to win. >> so the ldp together with its partner komeito has won two-thirds majority of the seats. what does that mean? >> it will give the government a greater chance to implement their processes. they still don't have a majority in the upper house, so members of the upper house will be able to reject certain bills. but with two-thirds majority in the lower house, the leader democrats, with the help of komeito, can override those objections. this may break the deadlock that has plagued administrations for years. but still, sofor example, he was to revidesign the constitution d he wants to upgrade it to a national defense force. that would re
