FRANKFURT AM MAIN, GERMANY - NOVEMBER 06: Andrea Ypsilanti (R), head of the Social Democrats (SPD) of the state of Hesse arrives for a board meeting of the SPD Hesse on November 6, 2008 in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. The SPD Hesse discusses the political situation after four members of the SPD were refusing to support SPD candidate for governor Andrea Ypsilanti, and without them her bid to become governor failed. The government of Hesse has been in limbo ever since inconclusive elections earlier in the year, and the current debacle could force new elections. (Photo by Ralph Orlowski/Getty Images)
