My bad. I actually undestood this

L'hommage rendu par Ségolène Royal à Tony Blair, dans le Financial Times du 2 février

to mean she had written an op-ed or something, which was almost absurd on its face, but still... It's Friday.

The difference between "vante le blairisme" and "rend hommage à Tony Blair" is really thin.
Means the same, basically.

In any case it's a misrepresentation of what she said... But if you assume Le Monde wants to torpedo the PS's front-runner it makes a lot of sense. Now she'll have to spend time reassuring PS members that she's not a Blairite instead of debating the other candidates.

What I mean is that I had found the article you link, but I thought I was searching for something else unsuccessfully.
