Socialists Lose Big In Spain But Can’t Accept It
Ciudadanos has said it will abstain in the vote to allow the PP to govern in a minority but this would not be enough. Together they would be the only vaguely realistic two-party combination that could form an outright majority.
If the Bengals win tomorrow night, they’ll likely need a Week 17 win over the Ravens and a Patriots loss to become the 1 seed, meaning that Cincinnati won’t be able to rest its starters. Vontaze Burfict led the defensive effort for Cincinnati, recording five tackles, one sack, and one interception.

Seattle Seahawks (10-5) – clinched playoff berth. They’ve finished a season with only one road win or none in 13 of their 48 seasons. Everyone wants to leave Philadelphia (6-8) for dead, so this is probably a game coach Chip Kelly will win to keep the Eagles’ postseason hopes alive. If the Packers lose, they’re the No. 5 seed.
