The French are still in Stage I: Denial.
They have a long way to go.

Yes.
You need to point out that if he was from the Congo, deep in sub-Saharan black Africa, he almost certainly wasn't a Muslim. This isn't simply a Muslim thing. It's a lawlessness issue. There were plenty of white French toughs in those pictures.
Do please publish the polls as soon as they go out.
I don't think this will hurt Sarkozy much.
I don't think it will help Royal much.
I think Le Pen will pick up some steam.
Bayrou may lose some to Royal on the issue.

Someone tell me if I am wrong but I read somewhere that the burning of cars in Paris and elsewhere continues every day. But the main stream media does not report it.

ethnicless, faceless, colorless, agendaless, motiveless, youths. Mooligans.
They shout and punch like hooligans,
As they burn a car, or fifty.
Mais oui! They are Les Mooligans.
And way, way short of nifty.

Put me down for the election ping list. I will actually be in Paris for the second round of voting in May. I will make sure to have plenty of memory left in my digital camera to take some shots if things go south.

The fellow jumping over the turnstile who head-butted the cops was wearing headbands?

Illegal immigrant from the Congo, well known to police with 22 previous arrests. There is a criminal element in France among these illegals, Muslims or "other".
I think when the new polls come out, they will show some slight gain for Sarko, a slight loss for Royal and Bayrou, and a slight gain for Villiers and le Pen.
