So is Marine Le Pen’s first name “Far Right”? I do not think I have ever seen the word Marine in print without being preceded by “Far Right”. Is there some kind of subliminal message they are trying to covertly extend?

I really dont get French politics, lol.

I know ‘TIC’ etc
BUT
That is a practice we should push for here.
Bob Dole is the ONLY one I can recall Ever quitting a ‘job’ to RUN for a higher job.
I figure when the likes of Kerry, McCain, etal make the finals, they should resign the seat they are holding - in ‘fairness’ to their constituents who are virtually being ‘deprived’ of representation while THEIR Senator/Rep are running for a higher office.
AND, IMNSHO one is not very confident in winning if he doesn’t have the gonads to devote ALL his time to move up.
In a perfect world they all would RESIGN once they throw in their hat but will gladly settle for the final two and their NAMED cohorts.

I think this title is a bit askew. Another paper presented it this way:
Marine Le Pen Temporarily Steps Down as Front National Leader to Concentrate on Presidential Bid LINK
This paper will not allow us to post their articles.
Note the lack of emphasis on appealing to moderates. It explains it as a way to concentrate on the election.

I’m surprised they haven’t just gone all the way and termed her a “Hitler Acolyte”, Marine La Pen...

Smart. Gets rid of the press mantra, "Marine Le Pen, leader of the far-right National Front." We'll see if it works.
Now she's just Joan of Arc, the leader of the French Revolution!

After mentioning Casa Blanca in a speech Sunday, (The place, not the movie) Marine Le Pen broke out singing the French National Anthem, very reminiscent of a scene from the famous flick. Quite the emotional moment.

I really dont get French politics, lol. To be a leader in France you have to know how to surrender... it's what they do.

That does sound like an emotional moment.
Hey, I’d have been proud to see the French people pick up on that. Cool.
I support every nation having pride for their nation.
They should make laws that make their nation first, or at least treated fairly or respectfully.

I don’t follow her closely, but that has been my take on her.
