It's a good job McCain doesn't have to campaign in Paris
An odd lot our Gallic chums. They voted 53/47 for Sarkozy in 2007, suggesting that right wingery (of sorts) is not altogether dead there, but asked who they want as PoTUS, they divide 68% Obama and *5*% for McCain, not much more than half the 9% for 'neither'. 18% didn't know, poor creatures. Twenty per cent reckon McCain would be a good president to the 72% who reckon Obama would be.
Surely they are not still smarting from these two wisecracks, are they?:
“We now have a pro-American president of France, by the way, which shows that if you live long enough anything can happen”
“They remind me of an aging movie actress in the 1940s who is still trying to dine out on her looks but doesn’t have the face for it”. (As found at Miquelon.org - 'Monitoring Anti-French Activity Since 2003')
