I was not in the slightest a fan of the guy - though I think he gave everyone quite a shock and plenty to think about when he did so well in the 1999 elections in Austria. Still, his style of politics is to me the dark side of Europe - and hopefully a style that doesn't go mainstream in North America anytime soon, as well.

Definitely a big name, regardless. What will be his legacy?
