Spain's Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero leaves after the annual debate on the state of the nation in the Spanish Parliament, in Madrid, Wednesday, June 29, 2011. Zapatero made no mention of calling early elections as the opposition is pushing him to. His term ends in March 2012, and he will not run again. Polls favor the conservative Popular Party to win the next election easily and thus inherit the job of steering the country through the obstacle course of Europe's debt crisis and avert the need for the kind of bailouts already given to Greece, Ireland and Portugal.
