Segolene Royal wins primaries in France

So there, we had primaries in France (which are not that common there!).... The left in France is sort of like the Democrats here in that they can't agree to be united against the overwhelming conservatism and police state compulsion of the right wing. There were three people who wanted to be the candidates to the presidentials for the left wing party called the "Parti Socialiste" (there are other left wing parties, but this one is the biggest), but of course all three had the best program ideas and were the best candidates. Instead of seeing that Segolene Royal was the obvious choice of the people, the two other guys HAD to oppose her! So we had primaries yesterday which showed that Segolene Royal was indeed that choice. Now that it's done, I'm feeling sort of scared because the opponent, Sarkozy (who is the PM at the moment) is venomous and I also don't really know that the french people will in fact overwhelmingly be ready to elect a woman. It seems it will come very close and I even can catch myself praying that the little lunatic dwarf won't become president as he's probably one of the most pestilent person I could see in power there (not counting the ever present extreme right wing racist jerk, Le Pen, who always manages to snake his way close in the presidentials!)!!! Anyway, let's hope we elect the first woman president in France next year. Let's hope people realize that electing a malicious right wing gnome cannot be beneficial to this country by watching what happened to the US in the last 6 years!
