France: Sarkozy, Royal in presidential runoff


In first round voting in France, French voters set up a second round that will define a battle of ideas: Conservative VS Socialism.

Sarkozy attained more votes than socialist rival Segolene Royal. Nicolas Sarkozy is Right Wing and Royal is Left Wing. If Royal wins, she will be France’s first female President. If Sarkozy wins, there could be a huge impact of diplomatic friendship between America and France.

Left Wing President Chirac has been openly anti-Bush in international policy. Sarkozy has said some pro-Bush statements earlier in his political days.
