Well, I expect European opinions to lap it up - to a point - but with governments, it's not gonna play well at all. Both sides are not talking the same language. Atlanticism is dead because all the Atlantists from the post-war era are dead.
My expectation is that governments will believe the shit a lot more than the population. Our governments will bend over backwards to try to please the new president, and to try to forget about past contentious issues, while the population will be a lot more doubtful.
Don't forget as well that it will be Sarkozy and Brown in the lead... In the long run, we're all dead. John Maynard Keynes
And if you are correct about the population, then it's good news we have Sarkozy. With his polls in the crapper, that ADD weathervane will do whatever pleases the electorate.
