Here comes France
Paris may be in trouble (see next post) but the rest of France seems to be waking up.

Black Sunday for France's Socialists as far-right breaks through
France's ruling Socialist Party suffered humiliating losses Sunday in a local vote marked by breakthrough successes for the far-right National Front and the historic election of a first female mayor of Paris.
On a day dubbed "Black Sunday" by one Socialist lawmaker, the National Front (FN) won control of at least eight towns and was on track to claim 1,200 municipal council seats nationwide, its best ever showing at the grassroots level of French politics.
They have their work cut out for them but if they can turn France around, it will be proof that socialism is not a viable option.
