Sounds "attractive" to me! (4.00 / 2)

"Strong showing for Strauss-Kahn's modern social-democracy. A Royal/Strauss-Kahn 'ticket' (President/Prime Minister), implicit or explicit, will look attractive to a lot of people."

I could certainly live with that.

Tell me again why Europe can't recolonize the U.S? New York City would make such a nice DOM-TOM!

warning : dubious humour (none / 0)

In such case, sure to be some hot stuff going on between Matignon and L'Elysee. DSK being a compulsive womaniser is public knowledge.
Not sure however, Segolene will be able to keep pace with him. Anne (his wife) has long given up.

When through hell, just keep going. W. Churchill

It's an unserious answer to a hopefully unserious question.

You have obviously never watched The Manchurian Candidate.

The sleeper cells and fifth column are being activated as we speak.
