As we continue our consideration of post-Upper House election domestic politics in Japan. This week our focus is on an effort to address the question: "Why is Shinzo Abe still Japan's prime minister?"

I don't have a definitive answer. But do have several alternative explanations. As always, continue to send your comments and suggestions to me at RobertCAngel@gmail.com. And click on over to the Japan Considered Project website at www.JapanConsidered.com. It's slowly beginning to take shape.
