LATEST OFFICIAL RESULTS ON FRANCE 5
SARKO 30.1
ROYAL 25
BAYROU 19
LE PEN 11
Sarko gave a magnificent acceptance speech. He has succeeded in giving voice to French concerns.
Credit Sarko with finally succeeding in putting le Pen out of business.
Best thing that could happen. Le Pen's good points (about immigration, for example) were always overshadowed by his negatives.
Now French politicians can actually talk about it without being called "National Front Fascists".
It is ironic that Sego supports the admission of Turkey, as does Bush, into the EU and Sarko opposes it, yet Sarko is seen as the more pro-American candidate. Both of them invoke the name of Tony Blair.
