Yeah, because they're the only ones who would oppose United Russia. Just look at the demonstrations, all full of skinheads there.Do you REALLY want neo-Nazi and radical nationalists to have seat in the Russian parlament?
The accusation that this was all engineered by Western mass media is pretty ridiculous (maybe you want to team up with mghani in your crusade against them?), considering that this was clearly exposed by Russians themselves on internet blogs etc.
