And this is probably good.  The PS willingly lost this election for their own candidate.  That said I expect nobody today is as sad as Jacques Chirac for he knows that his multi-polar world and the triumphant stand he made against Iraq, lifting the French back into a leading international position, will be fading.

The good news with Sarkozy kissing-up to the US is that the Republicans are very much on their way out in the US.  He will be licking the boots of a Democrat very soon.  They already control the Legislature.

Shame on the French Socialists and their machisme. And shame on the rest of the European Socialists who didn't see this for the important election that it was and didn't go to France to support Royal (maybe they weren't invited either).

Bush is a symptom, not the disease.
