Has PASOK had its chance?

The results from the last general election in Greece in June speak for themselves. The Socialist party appears to be in crisis as it has only managed to come third after the Tories and the hard left Syriza. The question must be whether this is a temporary phenomenon or whether the outcome in the summer is a clear indication that the country has swung towards the two opposite extremes? PASOK is very similar to New Labour with policies that could almost definitely have been translated from English into Greek.

My opinion is that the summer result reflects the anger of those who have been hit by the severe austerity measures endured by the whole country and that the electorate will soon move back to embrace the Socialist message?? I won't hold my breath though!
