Mr Hollande would be the first French socialist president since 1995.

So what would be the difference exactly? France has always been a socialist cesspool. Sarkozy was no conservative reformer, that's for damn sure.

What does France have to offer the world anyhow? They used to be known for their wine and cuisine but now California, Australia, and even Argentina are making better and more affordable wines and as such, French wines take up less and less shelf space in our wine stores. French restaurants have pretty much disappeared from the American landscape as our palates have moved on to more exotic cuisine (i.e. Oriental, Mexican) or just plain old Texas-style steakhouses and barbecue.
