It looks this evening that the German Federal President is about to resign his post.
It has been a relentless battle between the office of the Federal President and the media.
The question in Berlin this evening is how much damage the presidency of Christian Wulff is causing Angela Merkel.
Wulff's predecessor, Horst Köhler, an outsider in the world of politics and a banker by trade also resigned.
Wulff is a Catholic in a second relationship.
This evening on German television he was filmed during his current visit to Italy dining with Italian Dominicans. Might some say the kiss of death?

The kiss of death for whom? :-)
Surely that's clear. Church people are far too brazen to resign.
