We are starting to see a lot of campaign posters going up in the run up to next Spring's parlimentary elections. The one below is interesting.

The "them" being (from the left) former Prime Minister, Yulia Tymoshenko, current President, Vicktor Yushchenko, and current Speaker of the Rada, Volodymyr Lytvyn. The posters are being put up by the group called "Pora", which translates "it's time." "Pora" was perceived as being sympathetic to Yushchenko and Tymoshenko in last year's Orange Revolution, but, all that seems to have changed.

What a difference a year makes.
