The next election to the House of Councillors (the upper house) is due in mid-2010. This promises to bring more pain for the LDP.The LDP and New Komeito will need to boost their joint tally of seats by 19 just to gain a majority in the chamber.On current form,this looks a tall order.Much will depend on how Japan's economy performs in the next year,and,in particular,on whether voters view the LDP's use of fiscal stimulus to boost the domestic economy as a success or a waste of public funds.It might be that the best that the party can hope for is a partial recovery on which it can then build, with the eventual aim of regaining control of the upper house in the 2013 election.
