Nine weeks out from the French Presidential Elections, A new IFOP poll published February 12, 2007, shows Nicholas Sarkozy, UMP (Right) candidate beating Segolene Royal, PS Socialist Party (Left) candidate..
The results for the 1er Tour ( first round) are Sarko 33.5% Royal 26% with Francois Bayrou (+4 ) at 14% and le Pen at 10%.( -3 )
In the 2eme Tour (runoff) the results are Sarko 54% Royal 46%.
The interesting thing is the rise of Francois Bayrou, center right candidate, and the fall of JM le Pen.
mon dieu!
Go Le Pen Go!
When Joan D' Arc was asked by her judges why as a Christian she did not love the British, she answered that she did love them, but she loved British in their country. In the same way, we do not hate the Turks, we love them, but in their country.
--Jean-Marie Le Pen
"The same people who are in favour of quickie divorces are trying to weld together the ancient nations of Europe in a perpetual marriage. What are they going to do if we want to leave the EU? Send in the Wehrmacht?" - LePen
I have spent seven years of my life at sea; I have sailed the oceans and stared at an infinitesimal part of the billions and billions of stars in the heavens. My beliefs are simple ones. I believe in the nation and the family. Together with the nation, the family is the crucible for what little possibilities there are for human happiness. Society must have certain fundamental values or else there can be no personal development. -- Le Pen
100% chance it will be business as usual in France after the election no matter who wins....
Yes, go Le Pen! Go to hell.

Muslim Youth Gulags?
what is wrong with Jean-Marie Le Pen?
Doesn't matter who wins. France, like the rest of 'old Europe', is beyond repair.
He's a vicious anti-Semite.
I looked up Le Pen and found he has made some stupid statements. Funny how even their right wing has shades of leftist in them.
And you think France's jews are better off under the ongoing dhimmitude regieme that is taking hold in France?
"Manning the barricades" has been canceled until further notice.
Trading one anti-Semite for another?
Yeah, that anecdote about the two hour rant was amusing. :') The problem with youth camps for French delinquents is that they'll all strike for shorter hours, and better food, and family visits, and conjugal visits, and more cable channels...
You of course make a very logical point. That someone is less anti-semtic than the radical muslims is hardly priase. I guess, my point is, however, that it just seems to me that the reaction to Le Pen is out of proportion to what is said about the "mainstream" french politicians who are allowing the muslim invasion of france.
Put differently, even if I concded that Le Pen was an anti-semite, there is no reason to think that he would in any way support the physical harm of jews or theft of their property. What we do know about Le Pen is that he woudl stop the muslim invasion. The traditional french politicians may not support the harm of jews, but they are allowing the muslim invasion which will result in the mass murder of jews. Yet, there is extreme reaction to Le Pen, and not extreme reaction to the mainstream french politicians.
Le Pen is a neo-Nazi, an anti-Semite who hates America and Israel. He is anti-Capitalist and anti free trade. His entire career has been devoted to keeping alive the neo-Nazi neo-fascist movement in Europe.
Where anyone gets the ideas that he is a good guy is beyond me.
Anyone who roots for that kind of scum is just as low as he is.
You obviously do not know much about Le Pen. He is not some old geezer who is only slightly afraid of the Jews. He is a xenophobic bastard that probably has ties to neo-Nazis. He plays his public image in the same way that Arafat did. But they are both evil bastards once you peel away their façade of lies. Ségolène Royal is just really stupid and has pie in the sky dreams, like most socialists. She does not come even remotely close to being the anti-Semite that Le Pen is.
Here's some more quotes to balance out the ones you provided:
If you take a book of a thousand pages on the Second World War, in which 50 million people died, the concentration camps occupy two pages and the gas chambers ten or 15 lines, and that's what's called a detail.--Le Pen
Yes, I do believe in the inequality of races!--Le Pen
I have said and I repeat, at the risk of being sacrilegious, that the gas chambers are a detail of the history of the Second World War. --Le Pen
I'm not saying that the gas chambers didn't exist. I couldn't see them myself. --Le Pen
In France, at least, the German occupation was not particularly inhumane, although there were some blunders, inevitable in a country of 550,000 square kilometers. --Le Pen
