		Uno's scandal, covered in magazine interviews of a "kiss and tell" geisha, aroused the fury of female voters.
		Yet Uno's successor, the eloquent if obscure Kaifu Toshiki, was successful in repairing the party's battered image.
		By January 1990, talk of the waning of conservative power and a possible socialist government had given way to the realization that, like the Lockheed affair of the mid-1970s, the Recruit scandal did not signal a significant change in who ruled Japan.
