Encouraging news about Bayrou’s party leaders tending to support Sarkozy. Bad news about LePen probably endorsing Royal. I guess he’s really more concerned about globalization (or opposing Israel or Jews?) than the immigration and assimilation issues? If you’re right, we have to hope that the vast majority of LePen’s voters are more reasonable than he is.
IMO it is about le Pen. It was always about le Pen. He hates America, Israel, and the Jews, and everything that Sarko stands for.
He doesn’t conder Sarko French enough to rule France because he has three immigrant grandparents and is part Jewish.
He also hates Sarko for what he calls “stealing his thunder” and consigning him to the dusbin of history.
