Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

The group that does a lot of the polls that are published in French papers is TNS-SOFRES. Their web site has a section on politics and elections (2nd left hand menu item) under which you can find polls about political candidates and parities as well as polls on policy issues etc... The FN political party polls are in the political party section: http://www.php.sofres.com/cote3 . So far this year (2006) 10 to 11% of poll respondents had a favourable opinion of the FN and 79 to 80 had a negative opinion of the FN.

Le Pen cartoon bounce: back to 14-15% from 10%. What you linked for parties is apparently favorable opinion, not voter intention - funny enough that it is still below that of Le Pen's.

Their current poll, asking about "important role to play" rather than sympathy, has Villepin 36% (-7%), Sarko 44% (-8%). And Laguiller 23%.

Le Pen cartoon bounce

I'm outta my mind, confusing timelines. It was a 'riots' bounce actually, and the cartoons had no noticeable effect (but maybe the cartoons headed off a post-'riots' slump in le Pen's numbers).
