My Take
Gordon Bajnai interests me as the kind of leader summoned precisely when things fall apart. Taking the Hungarian premiership in 2009, at the bottom of the post-crash wreckage, is a thankless assignment, and his roots as an economist and entrepreneur suggest a problem-solver more than a career politician. His arc from regional development minister to economy minister to prime minister reads like escalating crisis management rather than ambition for its own sake. I tend to trust the people who get called in during emergencies, and Bajnai strikes me as exactly that: unglamorous, pragmatic, and willing to shoulder the hard year.
